Medicare Mental Health Check In
Medicare Mental Health Check In is a free Australian Government digital service for people aged 16 years and over who are starting to experience mental health challenges such as anxiety, low mood or difficulty sleeping. No referral or diagnosis is needed. It starts with a phone call to 1800 595 212, where a trained professional helps identify the right support. From there, people can access online programs with check-ins from a qualified mental health practitioner, working through tools in their own time. It’s a practical option for VET students who are not yet in crisis but want early support.
