At All About Fun Therapy, we support families accessing services through a range of funding options.

If you are unsure which funding option applies to your child, please contact us — we are happy to assist.

NDIS — Self-Managed

Families with self-managed NDIS funding can access our full range of services.

Under self-managed funding:

• Families manage their own invoices
• Payment is made directly to the service provider
• Families claim reimbursement through the NDIS portal

This option provides flexibility in choosing service providers and service schedules.

NDIS — Plan-Managed

Families with plan-managed NDIS funding can access services through their nominated plan manager.

Under plan-managed funding:

• Invoices are sent to the plan manager
• The plan manager processes payments
• Families do not need to manage invoices directly

This option provides administrative support for families.

Medicare (Chronic Disease Management Plan — CDMP)

Some children may be eligible for occupational therapy services through a Medicare Chronic Disease Management (CDM) Plan, arranged by a General Practitioner (GP).

Under a CDM Plan:

• A GP provides a referral for allied health services
• Medicare may provide rebates for up to 5 sessions per calendar year (shared across allied health providers)
• Families pay the service fee upfront
• Medicare rebates are claimed directly by the family

Important notes:

• A valid GP referral is required before attending sessions
• Medicare rebates are set by Medicare and may not cover the full session fee
• A gap payment may apply

We recommend speaking with your GP to determine whether your child is eligible for a CDM Plan.

Private Funding

Families may also access services privately without funding support.

Private funding may be suitable for:

• Families not accessing NDIS
• Families awaiting funding approval
• Short-term support needs
• Consultation or assessment services

Private services are charged according to our current service rates.
