What are the fees?

This depends on individual factors. Please contact the clinic to clarify. If you have a Health Care card fees may be reduced.  Payment plans are available, however the report will not be provided and the feedback session will not occur until final payment has been made.  Unfortunately, Medicare does not currently supply rebates for these services. This is currently under government review. Some private medical insurers may cover some of the cost. Contact your insurer and supply Item Numbers 100 and 200 to see if you may receive a benefit.
