Mental Health Care Plans - information

Not a question, but a quick correction of misinformation. It's been bugging me.

Mental health care plan: is not 10 FREE appointments. It is up to 10 Medicare subsidised appointments. Per annum. Some psychologists discount their fees in these instances so they are "free" (no out of pocket costs to patients), but in many cases there is still an out of pocket cost. A psychologist I've been seeing under a mental health plan costs $160 per appointment, Medicare rebate covers just over 50% of that. Still well worth the cost.
