How are cancellation fees neuro-affirming?
A question that sometimes arises when discussing cancellation policies is:
"I don’t want to attend my appointment, but I don’t want to pay a cancellation fee! How is that neuroaffirming?"
We understand no one enjoys paying cancellation fees. However, they exist to help services run sustainably and to ensure appointment times are used fairly, especially when there are long waitlists for support.
1 / Keeping our business sustainable
Like any business, we have ongoing costs, including wages for our clinicians and admin team. Our staff deserve financial stability, and their time is valuable. We're a small business and don't receive government funding, so appointment and cancellation fees allow us to continue providing services.
2 / Encouraging attendance & reducing wasted appointments
A late cancellation affects three people:
-
Your clinician, who has already prepared for your session.
-
Another client, who could have taken your spot.
-
You, missing out on support.
Last-minute cancellations are difficult to fill, meaning clients on our waitlist miss out on care.
3 / Ensuring fairness to everyone
We apply cancellation fees consistently to all clients. This removes any need for our admin team to determine whose reason for canceling is “valid” and ensures fairness—especially for clients who may not be able to argue their way out of a fee.
4 / Informed consent & clear policies
Our cancellation policy is transparent and clearly communicated:
-
Clients receive multiple appointment reminders via email and SMS.
-
Cancellation is easy via email, SMS, or the "cancel appointment" link in confirmation emails.
-
Our intake forms include a consent agreement, confirming awareness of our cancellation policy.
Medicare Safety Net
The Medicare Safety Net offers additional financial support for individuals with high medical and healthcare costs. Every Medicare cardholder has an assigned Safety Net threshold. Once you exceed this amount in out-of-pocket expenses, Medicare increases your rebate, reducing the cost of medical appointments, including visits to doctors, psychologists, and other health professionals.
For families who receive Family Tax Benefit A and Centrelink pensioners and seniors:
$861.20
for the 2026 calendar year
For everyone else - single people, couples, or families (as defined by Medicare)
$2,699.10
for the 2026 calendar year
Single people don't need to do anything
You are automatically registered for the Safety Net and do not need to do anything else
Couples & families need to register
If you're a member of a couple or a family you will need to register to share your safety net with each other (even if you're already on the same Medicare card).
Hospital expenses are not included
Only medical and health expenses you pay for in the community count towards your safety net. Health costs you pay for in-hospital do not count towards your safety net.
How do I check if I'm registered or check my Safety Net balance?
Through the Medicare app on your phone or through your Medicare account on MyGov. Go to the 'Services menu of the app or website and then select 'Safety Net'.
