GPs based in regional WA can now refer patients directly to the MindSpot GP digital mental health service, formerly known as PORTS.
GPs no longer need to refer via a regional provider, meaning patients can now more easily access the care they need, when they need it.
This service remains free with no mental health treatment plan required. A referral to MindSpot GP provides a convenient psychological treatment option for patients who cannot afford a gap payment or are unable to access another service.
In addition to the PORTS treatment options, MindSpot GP offers an increased range of services including clinician-guided specialist treatment courses for your patients presenting with mild – moderate:
- Anxiety and depression
- Obsessive compulsive disorder
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
- Problems managing chronic health conditions including pain
- Problematic substance use.
