National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

For children at risk of developmental delay, or children diagnosed with Autism or other disabilities, the NDIS may provide funding to support services such as Psychology, Speech Therapy, and Educational Therapy with a registered teacher.

HYM clinicians are qualified to support NDIS participants under Therapeutic Supports for children and young people aged 7 years and older.

 

For NDIA-managed psychology supports, Healthy Young Minds currently provides services under the Therapeutic Supports category only.

 

For children funded under other NDIS categories (such as Early Childhood Supports), Healthy Young Minds can provide services for plan-managed and self-managed participants only.

 

Please note that Healthy Young Minds does not provide services under the Improved Relationships funding category.

NDIS will fully cover your sessions (and reports) with HYM  as long as the service aligns with your child's goals listed in your child's NDIS Plan

NDIS clients are charged at the NDIS recommended rates. 

TAC

To access TAC rebates, a valid referral from a Medical doctor (GP) is necessary. Visit your doctor and discuss your concerns.  

Your child can access 6 initial sessions which are fully covered by TAC.

If your child requires more sessions, this may be arranged.

PLEASE NOTE: ASSESSMENTS FOR COGNITIVE ABILITIES AND LEARNING DIFFICULTIES
