Referrals

Referrals.

  • You do not need to have a referral to see a hand therapist.
  • A referral is preferred if you are privately funding and claiming through your health fund.

  • A medical referral is necessary from your treating surgeon or GP if you are covered by an insurer such as WorkCover, QBE, GIO, Allianz, AAMI, or DVA.

  • You will need to bring your insurance details.

  • It is helpful to bring with you any operation notes, x-rays, bone scans and other investigations such as MRI or ultrasounds you may have.
