Final update: private health insurance rebates for remedial massage and myotherapy

AMT has received official confirmation today from the Minister for Health, Hon Greg Hunt, that remedial massage and myotherapy will continue to be eligible for the private health insurance rebate.

The letter from Minister Hunt’s office states:

“The (Natural Therapies Review) Committee considered massage therapy and myotherapy as part of its review, which reported there is some moderate quality evidence of clinical efficacy. Therefore, the Government has decided that these services will continue to be eligible for private health insurance benefits.”
