Medicare covered
Medicare
Accelerate Exercise Rehabiliatation is a registered allied health provider of Exercise Physiologist services under Medicare. If your GP believes it is appropriate you may be able to claim up to 5 visits per year to an Accredited Exercise Physiologist to help treat medical conditions such as osteoporosis, diabetes, arthritis, depression, cardiovascular disease & obesity.
Medicare vs Private Health:
While Medicare covers up to 5 exercise physiologist sessions under Chronic Disease Management plans for patients with chronic conditions, private health insurance may offer more comprehensive coverage under extras policies without the same restrictions.
We recommend you check your specific policy level and annual limits, as coverage depends on extras policy level, annual limits, and waiting periods. This dual funding pathway significantly reduces financial barriers to accessing specialised exercise therapy
