Mental Health Case Conference MBS Items

These items are not specific to a type of Allied Health Professional discipline; Psychologists and Clinical Psychologists can use them along with some other types of Allied Health Professionals approved by Medicare.

Case conferences must be organised by a medical practitioner, and the participating provider must be invited to attend by the organising practitioner. The case conference must involve at least two other members of the multidisciplinary case conference team providing different kinds of treatment to the patient (some exceptions may apply to the ‘different kinds of treatment’ rule). The case conference of at least three people must include a medical practitioner. This information is provided with no warranty or guarantee of accuracy. A combination of face-to-face, video-conference and telephone attendance is allowed. See the item number notes on MBS online for associated notes.

* The fact sheet here states that these items can be utilised for ‘autism, pervasive developmental disorder and disability case conference services’ and ‘eligible disability case conference services’, yet as of 25-05-2024, this is not reflected in the MBS item number explanatory notes. These items can be accessed for autism, pervasive developmental disorders and eligible disability case conference purposes if the patient is under 25.
** Residential aged care facility (RACF). For clarity, according to the MBS description of these items, a ‘community case conference’ does not need to be in an RACF, but a ‘multidisciplinary case conference’ does.

National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)

This section is current as of 22-06-2026 for fees commencing on 01-07-2026 (see the NDIS for updates since).

The National Disability Insurance Scheme stipulates that the price limit includes GST if GST applies to an item. The NDIS does not have separate video conference, telephone, or face-to-face service items.

NDIS updates effective 01-07-2025 stipulate that the price limit for items is limited to 50% of the regulated price limit for the item to be charged for a support. There are also specific rules dependent on the amount of travel time that can be charged, dependent on whether the participant is in an MMM1-3 area or an MMM4-5 area, and whether the travel time claimed includes a return trip. Other arrangements exist for non-labour costs (non-time costs of travel) such as road tolls; the NDIS price guide should be consulted for the particular rules for your circumstances. We recommend consulting the NDIS official information to be certain of the rules.

Traffic Accidents

Transport Accident Commission (TAC)

This section is current as of 04-06-2026 for fees commencing on 01-07-2026 (see the TAC for updates since).

The TAC notes here that “a GST registered provider should not add GST on top of the Maximum Payment Rate as an allowance, for it is already included where applicable”. The Maximum Payment rate is per hour, billed in 15-minute increments to a maximum of one hour unless approved otherwise.

NSW CTP schemes

This section is current as of 01-02-2026 (see SIRA for updates since).

The applicable law for motor accidents depends on the date of the incident:

There are differences between these schemes that can be read about here. You will want to be sure that you consider any difference between the schemes contextual to the information provided below. Remember, the information on this page is provided in good faith without guarantee of accuracy. Contact SIRA to be sure.

There are no gazette rates of allied health practitioners, including psychologists, under the NSW CTP schemes except for the initial Allied Health Treatment Request (AHTR). Service codes do apply and are listed below. Rates should be agreed upon with the CTP insurer before treatment commences.

WorkSafe Northern Territory

This section was last updated on 25-06-2023 (for updates since, see WorkSafe NT).

Please note this has been put together through cursory research and does not come with a guarantee of accuracy. Contact WorkSafe Northern Territory for up-to-date information and to clarify. Understanding the billing process for psychological services under the workers’ compensation framework in the Northern Territory can be a bit challenging due to the absence of a defined fee schedule. Unlike other jurisdictions, the Northern Territory does not have a prescribed list of charges for psychologist services. Instead, the territory operates under a privately underwritten scheme where approved insurers and self-insurers manage claims. This means the costs associated with psychological services for individuals on a workers’ compensation claim are not predetermined and do not conform to a specific pricing guide. When it comes to setting fees and invoicing, practitioners are advised to apply their own standard charges for the reasonable cost of service.

Victims of Crime

NSW Victim Services

The NSW Victim Services section is more interpretive than others. It was last updated on 16-04-2023. It is important to interpret this cautiously and direct enquiries directly to NSW Victim Services to verify what information is correct. We do not guarantee the accuracy or provide a warranty for this information.

There are several unique aspects to NSW Victim Services counselling compared to similar schemes’ operations.

  1. NSW Victim Services applies GST to counselling services provided by psychologists registered for GST. Many other auspices do not include a GST component by default for similar services. In practice, charging GST is unavoidable for those registered for GST as invoices are created within their digital system.
  2. NSW Victim Services provides an additional payment of the Superannuation Guarantee on top of the listed rebates below. This is again uncommon in other similar programs interstate.
  3. Approved allied mental health professionals are considered Generalist Counsellors regardless of their discipline so long as they meet NSW Victim Services criteria for approval to work as a Generalist Counsellor.

NSW Victim Services incorporates its fee structure into its Operational Guidelines for Approved Counselors. NSW Victim Services can approve psychologists as Generalist Counselors Tier 1. After three years of consecutive tenure providing Approved Counselling Services and several other criteria, they may be considered upon application to become Generalist Counselors Tier 2.

NSW Victim Services provides unique item numbers for individual clients; therefore, none are listed.

Face-to-face, video conference and telephone

Please note that NSW Victim Services allows a minimum of 30 minutes for any counselling consultation and a maximum of two hours; you can apply a pro rata of the amounts in the table below. The Superannuation Guarantee is above the amounts listed in the tables below.

If multiple clients attend one appointment, you are to split the invoice evenly. For example, where two clients attend one hour of counselling together, you charge 30 minutes for each client.

Documentation

A maximum of 30 minutes can be claimed for a final report written when discharging a client you have provided services to, and for a Certificate of Injury. A Certificate of Injury can be provided when requested by the client.

Financial Assistance Scheme (FAS)

This section is current as of 30-06-2026 for fees commencing from 01-07-2026 (see the FAS for updates since).

The Victims of Crime Financial Assistance Scheme (FAS) of Victoria accepts applications directly; it also manages and disburses funds from Awards of Assistance issued by the Victims of Crime Assistance Tribunal (VOCAT). The FAS requires that those with a VOCAT Award of Assistance transition this to the FAS.

Since FAS became responsible for paying counselling expenses for VOCAT Awards, VOCAT updated its fees in accordance with VOCAT Guideline No. 2 of 2025 during this transition period. The adjustments by the VOCAT in force 01-01-2025 were higher than the FAS fees for counselling attendances; however, the FAS has refused to honour these fees, insisting that their own rates are the ones that must be paid. After several years of indexing, the rates are now higher than those listed in VOCAT Guideline No. 2 of 2025.

It is also noted that the maximum fee for group or family counselling is unclear, as it is not divisible by the fee for a single attendee. One possible interpretation is that the fee may decrease per participant once the number of participants exceeds the “maximum fee”, yet this should be clarified with the FAS directly.

The FAS do not appear to utilise item numbers. The FAS Counselling Expenses Payment Schedule outlines the fees for most of their psychologist items, as outlined below.
