Hardy Nutrition is a private billing clinic. Our fees are subject to change at any time. For the most up-to-date fees, please visit our website, check in-clinic notices, or contact our administration team.

Medicare Rebates If you have a chronic disease and a management plan from your GP, you may be eligible for five rebated allied health appointments per calendar year. Please request a Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDMP) or Team Care Arrangement (TCA) referral from your GP to access dietetic services at Hardy Nutrition.

Medicare rebates can be processed on the day of your consultation with a valid referral.

Private Health Insurance If you have private health insurance with extras cover, you may be eligible for rebates on dietetic services. Please contact your health insurance provider and quote:

Veterans Affairs (DVA) We are a registered DVA provider and offer DVA-funded nutrition consultations for eligible cardholders with a valid GP referral. Please speak with your GP to confirm your eligibility.

Appointment Policy To claim Medicare rebates under a Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDMP), your referral must be received before your consultation. If a valid referral is not provided at the time of your appointment, you will be required to pay the full fee. You may then claim any entitled rebates directly from Medicare.

Cancellation & Financial Policy

  • Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours before your appointment by phone.
  • Failure to cancel or reschedule with at least 24 hours’ notice will result in a full consultation fee charge, with no rebate or refund available.
  • If rescheduling a missed appointment, full payment is required at the time of booking. Rebates may still be claimed after attending your appointment.

Hardy Nutrition does not double-book appointments; therefore, we require 24 hours' notice for all cancellations or reschedules.
