You will be matched 1:1 with a primary OT

At the beginning of your journey with Be You OT, you will be matched with a qualified occupational therapist who will serve as your primary point of contact. This ensures continuity of care and a deep understanding of who you are and what you need.

We’ll then seamlessly bring in other OTs from our team as needed, providing you with additional clinical expertise to ensure you get the best possible care as your needs evolve.

This unique wraparound service — provided by our team of Brisbane and Sunshine Coast-based occupational therapists — allows us to tailor interventions to your unique needs and preferences, in a way that remains calm and connective for you.

 

We are registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and our Occupational Therapists maintain voluntary membership with Occupational Therapy Australia (OTA).

Common questions about occupational therapy

  • Be You OT is a registered provider with the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA). NDIA managed, plan managed and self-managed NDIS participants can access our services.

  • The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has not increased benchmark prices for occupational therapy services for several years despite the rising costs of running a business. While we are unable to change the rates for agency and plan managed clients, we have an increased rate for private and self-managed NDIS clients to reflect the quality of our service provision and the costs associated with running an allied health business.

  • We are not currently registered with private health insurance providers. While we aim to provide an exceptional quality of service, you will not be able to claim for our services through your private health insurance fund.

  • Yes, you can use Medicare if you have a current GP-issued Chronic Disease Management Plan. The current Medicare rebate is $56 per appointment, so your out-of-pocket costs are $144 per session.
