Am I eligible for a Medicare rebate?

Dietetic services are eligible for a rebate through Medicare. If your General Practitioner believes you are qualified for a Care Plan, you are able to get a partial rebate for up to 5 sessions per calendar year. Please note that if you have reached the Medicare threshold for that year, you may get a substantial amount back and is definitely worth checking if you’ve had many medical expenses in that year.

What about Private Health Insurance rebates?

Dietetic services are usually part of your extras and you should receive a partial rebate, however, it is best to check with your current provider as it depends on your level of cover.

How many sessions are typically recommended?

This really depends on your baseline nutrition knowledge and level of complexity of your health, however, a MINIMUM of 3 sessions is required to get the most out of working with me.

What should I have ready for our initial consultation?

Recent and old (up to 12 months) blood results are really helpful to assess your current metabolic and nutritional status. Please email any Care Plans or blood results in advance to niki@bumptobundlenutrition.com.
