Currumbin Clinic works in partnership with General Practitioners and key service providers to treat people suffering with a comprehensive range of mental health concerns.
For assistance with managing your patients’ mental health concerns, please follow our simple five-step admissions process outlined below.
- Does your patient need a specialist mental health admission and is not in acute crisis or actively suicidal?
Note: If your patient is in acute crisis or actively suicidal, please contact your local Emergency Department - Does your patient have Private Health Insurance, DVA Status, WorkCover or the ability to self-fund their admission?
Note: Effective 1 April 2018, Australian Government changes to private health insurance coverage for mental health services have taken effect. - If yes, call 1800 119 118 to discuss admission suitability with our Admissions and Assessment Team
- We will confirm the outcome of your patient’s eligibility check and any applicable out-of-pocket expenses
- Same day, we will confirm your patient’s admission date and coordinate the allocation of a Psychiatrist
