Medibank now recognises AMHSWs as mental health service providers.

Following successful advocacy by the AASW, Medibank Private will officially recognise Accredited Mental Health Social Workers (AMHSW) as eligible mental health service providers from 28 April 2025.

This change means Medibank members will be able to claim benefits for services delivered by AMHSWs, an important step forward for professional recognition and expanding access to social work-led mental health care.

This outcome strengthens the professional standing of AMHSWs and supports broader access to mental health services across Australia.

For more information, visit the help section of the Medibank website under claims and guides.
