Let’s be clear - this isn’t just about a single price cut. The data shows a 13.3 per cent shortfall between actual costs and the NDIS price guide. The APA is demanding what should have happened years ago. Abolish the cut. Fix the freeze. Get involved: https://t.co/VlV5sqqrUi

@president_apa Thanks to SkyNews who gave me a platform to ask the NDIA to reverse the cut to physio pricing, restore travel funding, keep rural loading. A cut to physio is a cut to care to Australia’s most vulnerable. The NDIA must consult with peaks.

While physiotherapists would like to see certainty about the Foundational Supports program ASAP, the delay gives jurisdictions the opportunity to make certain it is adequately funded and designed to ensure integrated services for children and teens ineligible for the NDIS.

UCCs are proven to reduce pressure on GPs and EDs and give patients access to the care they need, when they need it. The APA will continue to promote the value of primary contact physiotherapy - a service that benefits both patients and fellow healthcare professionals.
