Medicare does not cover Physiotherapy however you may be eligible for a Chronic Disease Management Plan (also known as an Enhanced Primary Care Plan (EPC) or Team Care Arrangement (TCA) from your GP.

On the day you will need to pay the full cost of the appointment and we will submit it to Medicare on your behalf. The refund will then be automatically sent to your account if you have one set up with Medicare already.
