- Program Fee: Once your care plan and service pathway are confirmed with you, we will invoice you for the remaining program fee to proceed. Payment is required prior to starting your program.
- For the 6+ Hour Program, this means a follow-up payment of $1,080
- For the 10+ Hour Program, the follow-up payment is $1,680

- A minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required to cancel or reschedule an appointment.
- Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice or failure to attend without notice will incur a $120 cancellation fee, which is not claimable via Medicare.
