Please note that this table is only a guide to show what funds cover ATMS accredited modalities . If the modality that you are accredited for is not listed , this means that no health fund covers the modality . The only exceptions are Chiropractic and Osteopathy . ATMS accreditation in a modality does not guarantee provider status as all funds have their individual set of strict eligibility requirements . Please see our website www . atms . com . au or contact our office for current requirements . Rebates do not usually cover medicines , only face to face consultations . For further rebate terms and conditions , patients should contact their health fund . Policies may change without prior notice .
