Funding Options

Private Clients

Clients are welcome at Horizon Therapy Services who currently have no funding options in place and wish to pay for their/their child’s occupational therapy and/or speech pathology treatment via a private EFTPOS payment or cash payment. Payment is required at the time of consultation.

NDIS Plan – Self managed or NDIS managed

Clients who have funding through the NDIS scheme are also welcome at Horizon Therapy Services. If a client’s plan is self managed then EFTPOS payment is usually required at the time of consultation (unless sessions are held at school in which case an electronic invoice will be issued to parents or in exceptional circumstances). If a client’s plan is NDIS managed then payment is processed via the NDIS portal and no EFTPOS payment is required at the time of consultation. If a client’s plan is managed by a Third Party organisation, an invoice will be sent electronically to the Third Party organisation and no EFTPOS payment is required at the time of consultation.
