Additional mental health support

The Australian Government will provide 10 additional Medicare subsidised psychological therapy sessions for people subjected to further restrictions in areas impacted by the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Patients will be required to have a GP MHTP and a review with their GP to access the additional sessions. The additional support will commence on Friday 7 August and be available until 31 March 2021.
