Can I claim my homeopath consultation costs on my private health fund? There are many private health funds which cover homoeopathic consultations. Sam Adkins is a fully registered homeopath which means if your health fund lists homeopathy as a benefit of your policy, then you will be able to claim for a proportion of your consultation fees. How often will I need to visit my homoeopath? This depends on the nature of your case but generally once a month for 3 months and then less often. With an acute condition you may have to be in frequent contact by phone and also have some additional visits. How is homoeopathy regulated as a profession in Australia? Homoeopaths cannot practice without insurance and this in turn cannot be obtained unless they are a member of a professional body such as the Australian Homoeopathic Association (AHA). They also have to be on the Australian Register of Homoeopaths (ARoH). These bodies ensure that homoeopaths are trained to a high standard and serve as a point of reference for people wishing to find a suitable homoeopath or to find out more about homoeopathy in general. All homoeopathic courses comply with the NCHS (National Competency Standards for Homoeopathy) and graduates from only recognised courses are permitted to be placed on the Australian Register of Homoeopaths. Please see my website links in Free Advice to these organisations. Are there any guidelines under which all homoeopaths work? All homoeopaths work to a strict Standard of Practice governed by ARoH. This covers such things as ethics and confidentiality. A privacy statement is available at your consultation.
