What is a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP)An MHCP is a support plan for someone who is going through mental health concerns and is obtained through your General Practitioner (GP). A standard MHCP provides you with 10 sessions in a calendar year. If on a mental health care plan, you will receive a Medicare rebate per session of $96.65 (general psychologist) or $141.85 (clinical psychologist). If you have a Medicare card and a valid GP referral, we will process your Medicare claim for you within 24-48 hours from your session.
