FAQ

(From ATMS website) Can I claim a rebate from my practitioner?

This will depend on a number of factors. Firstly, check with your health fund. Does your policy cover natural therapies, and more importantly the therapy you wish to use.

 

Once you have established you can claim, ask your practitioner if they are a registered provider with your health fund. If they are then you should be able to claim a rebate.

 

Some important things to remember. If you put in a claim and it is rejected you need to contact your practitioner. Generally, it is timing issue where information between the association and the health fund can become delayed. The majority of the time it can be rectified with a simple phone call. Your practitioner will call their association and sort out the matter. Please do not just assume that the practitioner is not registered. Your practitioner will be happy you have called and will want to rectify the situation for you as a respected client.
