Are you a veteran or part of the defence force community with a DVA card?
If you’re a veteran or a defence force community, and holds a DVA white or gold card, you can get started with our DVA Program (see below).
This program does not require an out-of-pocket expense with your DVA card.
Or, if you’d like to have more flexible options with your persistent pain management treatments, consider our Private Paying option.
This option requires out-of-pocket expense, but GP referrals can help reduce the cost.
