Mental health treatment plans and privacy
As part of the therapy for my loved one, we need to have family therapy as well. I was informed by a psychologist someone recommended to me that if our daughter needs ongoing therapy, and she chooses to get a mental health treatment plan (allowing her to access medicare support for the costs), that this plan would need to be discolsed to insurers and employers down the track.
This strikes me as wrong, as I would have thought it is a confidential plan between my daughter and her GP. I can't find any information about it on the internet. Does somebody know abou this? Can you share a link or some thoughts?
