RT @president_apa: Stand Up for Disability Care: Stop the NDIS Cuts - Sign the Petition! via @ChangeAUS.

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:

RT @dawson_rik: @president_apa Thanks to SkyNews who gave me a platform to ask the NDIA to reverse the cut to physio pricing, restore trave….

The NDIA has jeopardised physio services by cutting pricing under the NDIS. This risks: .🔹Less access for participants .🔹Fewer providers .🔹Greater pressure on hospitals. Help us demand action. Send a letter to your MP now →

We look forward to working constructively with Government to shape a system that delivers for all. Learn more:

We will have a strong voice in this next phase of consultation to make sure older Australians can access the care they need — while ensuring the long-term viability of physiotherapy providers and care providers.

The APA will use this time to ensure physiotherapy is recognised for its essential contribution to the aged care sector, and that pricing structures are sustainable and support high-quality, evidence-based care.

This delay reflects what the sector has been calling for: a genuine opportunity to get the detail right.

Aged Care Act delayed – A necessary and welcome step The Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA) welcomes the Government’s decision to delay the implementation of the new Aged Care Act, including Support at Home, to 1 November 2025.

The APA will continue to work with state and federal governments to secure equitable access to early intervention and ongoing physiotherapy for non-NDIS patients.

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.

The Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA) acknowledges the federal government’s announcement that the rollout of foundational supports, originally planned for 1 July 2025, has been delayed. A revised implementation date has not been provided.

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.

The APA welcomes the $11.1 billion investment in the Victorian state budget released today, including the $48.2 million allocated to support Urgent Care Clinics (UCC).
