Funding
DVA, NDIS, Medicare, workers compensation, Home Care Packages and private health. Most clients pay little or nothing out of pocket.
Funding options we work with
Most of our clients pay little or nothing out of pocket. Tell us which of these applies to you and we will handle the referrals, the reporting and the invoicing.
Ask your GP for a D904 referral, or call us and we will talk you through exactly what to ask for. Once it is issued we bill the Department of Veterans Affairs directly, so there is nothing for you to pay and no gap to claim back. A standard referral covers twelve sessions within twelve months, we come to your home anywhere in the Illawarra, and we report back to your doctor at the end of the cycle.
Exercise physiology sits under Improved Daily Living and Improved Health and Wellbeing. We provide service agreements, progress reports written for plan reviews, and invoices priced in line with the NDIS support catalogue. Sessions run at home, in the community or by telehealth, and we work in step with your support coordinator and plan manager. We are not currently able to invoice the agency directly for agency managed plans.
If you live with a chronic condition your GP can prepare a Chronic Disease Management plan giving you up to five subsidised allied health visits each calendar year. Medicare pays a rebate for each visit and a small gap applies.
With an approved claim number and a referral we invoice your insurer directly and work to the treatment guidelines, including functional reporting and a staged return to work plan built with your employer.
Most funds cover exercise physiology under extras cover. We process HICAPS claims at the time of your appointment, so you only pay the gap. Check your annual limit with your fund before you start.
Your package can fund allied health at home. We work with your provider and case manager, invoice them directly and report on progress so your goals stay documented in your care plan.
You do not need a referral to see an exercise physiologist. Book straight in, and we will send a receipt you can claim against your extras cover if you have it.
We take referrals from support coordinators, case managers, plan managers, GPs and specialists across the Illawarra. Send a referral and we will make contact with your client within two business days.
Not sure which applies to you?
Call us and describe your situation. We will tell you honestly what you are likely to be eligible for, what it would cost and what the next step is, before you commit to anything.
Frequently asked questions
B2B Rehab is a mobile exercise physiology service, which means we visit you or your patient in the comfort of your own home or another location that suits you. Everything needed for the session travels with us.
Simply make a booking using the online booking system on this site and we will reach out to confirm the details. If you would rather train somewhere set up for it, our training base at Dandaloo Sports Ground, 336 Kanahooka Rd, Kanahooka NSW 2530 is available by appointment, and we also run appointments online by telehealth.
We travel across Wollongong, the Illawarra, Shellharbour and South Sydney. That includes Wollongong, Kanahooka, Dapto, Port Kembla, Figtree, Corrimal, Thirroul, Shellharbour, Kiama and the southern Sydney suburbs.
If you are just outside those areas, get in touch anyway. We will tell you honestly whether we can reach you, and telehealth appointments are available anywhere in Australia.
An accredited exercise physiologist is a university qualified allied health professional who uses clinical exercise to treat injury, chronic disease and disability. We are recognised by Medicare, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the NDIS, private health funds and workers compensation insurers.
Where a physiotherapist often focuses on hands on treatment in the early stage of an injury, exercise physiology focuses on the rebuilding phase: restoring strength, movement, capacity and confidence so the problem does not keep coming back. The two work well together, and we will refer you on when hands on treatment or imaging is the right next step.
It is not only for injury and illness either. The same testing and programming is used for performance: return to sport after an injury, strength and conditioning blocks, technique coaching and managing training load so you can push hard without breaking down again.
Gold and White Card holders are fully funded. Ask your GP for a D904 allied health referral naming exercise physiology, then send it through to us. We bill the Department of Veterans Affairs directly, so there is no payment, no gap and no claiming on your part.
A standard referral covers up to twelve sessions in twelve months, and we come to your home anywhere in the Illawarra, so there is no clinic to drive to and no waiting room. If you are not sure what to ask your doctor for, call us on 0424 234 282 and we will walk you through it.
We work with plan managed and self managed participants. Exercise physiology is usually funded under Improved Daily Living or Improved Health and Wellbeing, and it does not come out of your core supports.
You will get a service agreement up front, sessions at home or in the community rather than in a clinic, and progress reports written so they can be used at your plan review. We are happy to take referrals straight from support coordinators, plan managers and allied health teams.
No. You can book directly and pay privately with no referral at all.
A referral is only needed when a third party is paying. Medicare requires a Chronic Disease Management plan from your GP, the Department of Veterans Affairs requires a D904 referral, and workers compensation requires an approved claim number with a referral from your nominated treating doctor.
