Please consider signing and sharing this petition that calls for more mental health care for those that need it.
Patients with complex mental health conditions, including those who have survived trauma, currently have access to a Medicare rebate for just 10 sessions each calendar year.
This is inadequate for many people, and is not in line with evidence based treatment guidelines for many mental health conditions.
There is a cohort of people for whom 10 appointments is not enough to assist them to improve their mental health.
Vulnerable Australians are not receiving the help they need. As many know, the public mental health system is struggling.
