PRIVATE
All Orthotic and Prosthetic work carried out is able to be paid for privately. We are registered with major Health Insurers so if your insurer covers Orthotists in their Extras package then you may claim a refund. Feel free to contact us if you require further clarification regarding Extras refunds – a medical referral is sometimes necessary. LOW INCOMEWe are usually able to access funding from a range of support packages to assist in the associated costs for low income, or people with chronic disabilities. Co-payments are sometimes required and a waiting period for funds to become available is common.
ARTIFICIAL LIMB SCHEMEUnfortunately at this stage we do not have a contract with an Amputee Clinic or the Artificial Limb Scheme to have costs reimbursed through this funding scheme.
