Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to book a consultation?
No referral is necessary. Simply complete our online pre-screening form to check eligibility, then you can book a consultation directly if suitable for alternative medicine treatment. A referral is ideal but not necessary, however if your health records are incomplete, a Health Summary will be required.
Please note: The alternative natural therapies prescribed by Botaniqal Clinic doctors are not first-line treatments for any medical condition. Conventional treatments must be attempted first to qualify for holistic therapy
Is my information confidential?
Yes, the clinic treats patient privacy seriously. Your information is stored securely and is only shared with pharmacies and suppliers when necessary to provide you with medication, or as required by law.
For prescriptions involving Schedule 8 substances, your healthcare provider will have access to your medical history via real-time monitoring. This is a government program that tracks these medications to prevent misuse.
Does health insurance cover alternative medicine treatment?
Most private health insurers in Australia cover some or all of the costs of alternative medicine prescriptions. However, there are exceptions. It's important to check with your insurer specifically to see if they offer coverage before making a claim.
Is my alternative medicine or consultation with Botaniqal Clinic covered by Medicare?
As our clinic continues to evolve and grow, we anticipate that Medicare coverage may become available in the near future. We're actively working towards this goal to make our services more accessible to all patients. We recommend checking back regularly for updates on Medicare coverage, as we're committed to providing you with the most current information about payment options and potential rebates.
