Already approved, claim pending or not sure?

Psychology already approved

If psychology has already been approved, provide your claim number, insurer or claims contact, approval letter or referral details so the intake team can confirm the next step.

Claim lodged but approval unclear

If your claim has been lodged but psychology approval is unclear, complete the form and upload any certificate, referral or insurer correspondence. Meyer Institute can review what information appears to be missing.

No claim yet

If no claim has been lodged, the usual first step is to see your GP or treating doctor and ask about the correct certificate and claim process for SA.

Referrer submitting documents

GPs, rehabilitation providers, case managers and insurers can use the referral partner portal to upload claim details, reports, approvals and referral documents.

FAQs

Should I call this WorkCover in South Australia?

South Australia uses the ReturnToWorkSA scheme. Some people search WorkCover out of habit, but the page should use ReturnToWorkSA as the main term.

Who manages SA claims?

ReturnToWorkSA uses claims agents. Common claims agents include EML and Gallagher Bassett, but this should be confirmed for each claim.

What do I need before enquiring?

Helpful documents include a claim number, Work Capacity Certificate, referral or treatment recommendation, claims agent details and any psychology approval emails.

Can treatment proceed without approval?

This depends on the claim, claims agent and funding pathway. Meyer Institute cannot guarantee approval but can help clarify the information needed.
