@PaulWorleySA Congratulations 🎉

[AAPMH Nurses Ltd @AAPMHNurses]

@healthgovau @MurrayPHN Can you please explain to everyone who is bulk billing for these sessions right now.. it is great they are available, but they are only subsidised, and not FREE. So how can our most needy, afford this?? Please help me understand?

[AAPMH Nurses Ltd @AAPMHNurses]

@MagdaSzubanski @leighsales @abc730 Amazing organisation. Thank you for doing this. I only hope that the Government makes the 20 COVID telehealth mental health sessions bulk billed and not just subsidised so everyone affected right now has access, and not just those who can afford to pay the gap fee. Stay Safe.

[AAPMH Nurses Ltd @AAPMHNurses]

Please understand that increasing Medicare mental health telehealth does not mean it is accessible. Many people are charged a gap fee. Please PM provide an alternate stream of funding via PHNs for our COVID impacted clients.

[AAPMH Nurses Ltd @AAPMHNurses]

Please Greg Hunt MP, please Scott Morrison, I beg you to allow mental health nurses to now be included in the Better Access for our patients during stage 4 COVID!! Please increase CDM Items from 5 to 20 for people with more complex mental health issues!

#ThankYouNurses #youAreAmazing huge shout to all nurses and doctors working in hospitals and aged care facilities!! You ROCK and are the True hero’s! #pleasewearamask

[AAPMH Nurses Ltd @AAPMHNurses]

Governments ensure that the main mental health staff who support vulnerable people during COVID and Bushfire response are Mental Health Nurses!!
A critical profession for high need communities, but still not a valid to access mental health Medicare billing for their clients! WHY?
