You don’t need a referral to see an Occupational Therapist at Learn for Life. We welcome a range of funding pathways to make accessing support as easy as possible.

National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

We provide services under the NDIS in line with the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits. We welcome participants who are self-managed or plan-managed. 

Department for Child Protection (DCP) 

For families supported by DCP, we can provide a quote for services upon request.

Private / Fee for Service 

You’re welcome to access therapy as a privately paying client.

Private Health Insurance 

Many health funds provide rebates for OT assessments (code 100) and consultations (code 200). Payment is required in full at the time of the appointment, and you can then claim your rebate directly from your provider. Please check with your health fund for specific rebate details. 

Please note, we are not currently registered to provide services through Medicare or Chronic Disease Management Plans.
