Great news for our NDIS community! ๐ต๐จ
Music and art therapy funding has been restored to fair levels following an independent government review. From November 24, qualified therapists can bill up to $156.16 per hour - the same rate as counselling services.
This is such a positive step forward! The review found these therapies can be truly life-changing when delivered by qualified professionals. Art and music therapy remain fully available under NDIS funding.
