The Medicare funded services are available from eligible GPs (including a general practitioner, but not including a specialist or consultant physician), and from credentialed mental health nurses, psychologists, and social workers, when the woman is referred by a GP. MBS item 81010 is the specific service provided by Credentialed Mental Health Nurses. Before members of any of the above professions can provide the counselling service, they are required to undertake the mandatory course that has been developed by their designated organisation.
