Funding
Private Health
Invoices for The Affirm Group services may be claimed for rebate from your private health fund. Contact your fund to see if your level of cover entitles you to a rebate for speech pathology services.
Medicare Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plans
The Affirm Group provides services under 'Chronic Disease Management’ (CDM) Medicare items, as part of the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS).
Eligibility for this plan is determined by General Practitioners (GPs/your doctor) and is based on a child’s need level. If eligible, a partial refund on up to 5 services per calendar year is available.
Please note, this rebate does not cover the full cost of sessions and The Affirm Group sessions must be paid in full prior to accessing the rebate.
National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
The Affirm Group is not a registered provider under the NDIS, so we are unable to service clients who are agency-managed. We accept clients who are self or plan-managed. Please email in advance, or bring along to your first session your or your child’s NDIS reference number, plan dates and plan goals to ensure we provide supports that meet NDIS requirements.
