Under new government legislation Health Funds can no longer pay benefits for stand-alone Pilates classes. However, we are allowed to pay for group physio classes with a qualified Physiotherapist or Exercise Physiologist that includes, but is not made up exclusively of, exercises or techniques drawn from Pilates. The group classes must be targeted to manage or prevent a specific disease, injury or condition. For health funds to pay you must have an active treatment plan with your Physiotherapist or Exercise Physiologist.
