Medicare may cover visits to GPs and specialists, where individuals can receive assessments, referrals, and mental health treatment plans. Therapy sessions, such as psychological counselling, may also be subsidised under Medicare’s Better Access initiative. Some addiction-related medications are available at a reduced cost under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS). In limited cases, public hospital services may provide medically supervised detox or brief interventions.
However, Medicare cannot be used to fund any residential or inpatient services at The Hader Clinic — this includes detox, rehab, or extended stays; individuals who require medical supervision during withdrawal may need to seek alternative funding options. Most allied health services outside of mental health plans, such as specialised addiction counselling and holistic therapies, are also not covered.
Chúng tôi sẽ gọi cho bạn vào thời điểm thuận tiện nhất, không hề có áp lực phải cam kết.
