Funding
There are a variety of rebates and funding sources available to children with autism who are looking to access most of our services. These broadly fall into two main categories: rebates applicable to services from psychologists available via Medicare initiatives and funding available via the government's Helping Children with Autism package.
Speak to your GP or paediatrican regarding Medicare rebates for psychologists.
Autism Partnership is a Service Provider recognised under the Helping Children with Autism package, provided by the Department of FaHCSIA. Our clients, aged 0-6 years, can apply for and receive government funding of up to $12,000 for our multi-disciplinary services.

It is also worthwhile registering for the Medicare Safety Net - which allows you to receive further rebates once you reach the required threshold.
