How Appointment Fees Are Structured

Your initial appointment will run for 45 minutes in total.

There’s also 30 minutes allocated for administrative time, during which your practitioner will plan your session ahead of time, document the details of your session afterwards, plan future interventions, and send any relevant information to you or anyone else as required.

Follow-up appointments are either 30 or 45 minutes long, based on the intervention required and your preference.

If you require us to travel to you, this is charged at $210.00 excluding GST per hour and $1.00 excluding GST per km travelled.

Total Cost Per Appointment

45-minute appointment + 30 minutes non-face-to-face administrative time = $265.50 excluding GST (no travel included).

30-minute appointment + 30 minutes non-face-to-face administrative time = $210.00 excluding GST (no travel included).

Medicare and Private Health Rebates

DLS Allied Health does not process Medicare or Private Health rebates, but you will receive a copy of your invoice via email, and you may be able to request a rebate using this invoice.

DLS Allied Health makes no guarantees as to whether you will receive a rebate or not.

GST Exemptions

GST is excluded from most allied health services as part of the ATO's GST exemption list, provided the services are considered a 'treatment'. This includes almost all services we deliver privately.

Some exclusions to this policy include consulting for other businesses or organisations, and training for other allied health professionals.

If you're unsure, you can ask our team to confirm whether GST will be charged on the service you receive.
