Accessing mental health support has never been simpler with Qoctor’s online Mental Health Care Plan service.

What is a Mental Health Care Plan?
A Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) is a document created by a GP that details your mental health needs and suggests suitable treatment paths, including referrals to psychologists, counsellors, or other mental health professionals. In Australia, people with an MHCP can benefit from Medicare rebates for up to 10 psychology sessions annually, making therapy a lot more accessible.
