Does Australia's national health insurance cover plastic surgery for facial scars resulting from an accident?

Facial scars incurred during a bicycle accident? (Or any type of accident, for that matter.)
--------------------
Medicare doesn't cover surgery for solely cosmetic reasons so you would need to have a referral from a psychiatrist or other medical practitioner to the effect that it was required for some other reason. That wouldn't be hard to do for scars resulting from an accident.
