Your Path to Care Through Medicare or NDIS
Clear pathways into care. We provide a calm, practical approach to navigating mental health support. Whether you are seeking Medicare-supported sessions or are self-managed/plan-managed through the NDIS, our practice is designed to be accessible, relational, and culturally safe from the first point of contact.
Clear Pathways to Care
- Private Therapeutic Sessions: You are welcome to access our services as a private, fee-paying client. No medical referral is required to begin your therapeutic journey, offering you immediate and flexible support tailored to your needs.
- Medicare-Supported Access: For clients seeking Medicare rebates, a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) or an Eating Disorder Treatment Plan (EDTP) from your GP is required. This allows for a significant rebate on up to 10 sessions per calendar year.
- Referral Process: To ensure a seamless rebate process, please ensure your GP referral is addressed to Lauren Thompson at MobMind Collective. Referrals can be sent directly to hello@mobmindco.org.
- Cultural Safety & Clinical Care: All pathways into MobMind are held within a framework of clinical excellence and First Nations-led cultural safety, ensuring your story is met with respect and specialized understanding.
NDIS Pathways to Care
MobMind Collective is proud to support NDIS participants through self-managed and plan-managed pathways, ensuring accessible, culturally grounded mental health support.
Self-Managed
If you self-manage your NDIS plan, you have the flexibility to choose any provider. You pay MobMind directly for your sessions and claim the funding back through the NDIS participant portal. This pathway offers the highest level of autonomy in managing your therapeutic budget.
- Direct control over funds
- Ability to use non-registered providers
- Immediate payment processes
Plan-Managed
For participants with a NDIS registered Plan Manager, we invoices your manager directly for our services. This pathway removes the administrative burden, as your plan manager looks after the claims and payments on your behalf while you focus on your therapeutic journey.
- Admin-free experience
- Professional oversight of funds
- Streamlined provider invoicing
