Please read and sign, we have not seen a price increase in 7 years! Imagine not getting wage increases despite the cost of living going up. We love what we do here and care about the families we work with. Good services are worth it!! NDIS if you pay with peanuts you attract monkeys.
OTs are at breaking point.
The NDIA has made a devastating pricing decision—one that freezes therapy support rates for the seventh year in a row and slashes travel funding for occupational therapists by 50%. These changes are already driving providers out of the system and leaving participants without essential care.
Occupational therapists deserve fair pay.
NDIS participants deserve consistent care.
OTA is campaigning for an immediate price uplift, a fit-for-purpose allied health costing model, and a reversal of the 50% travel rate cut – and we need your voice!
Here’s what you can do:
1.Sign our petition to the Australian Government and NDIA
2. Email your MP using our prepared template - it goes straight to your MP + NDIS decision-makers
We also call on our OTA members to share this with your networks. The more Australians who speak out - participants, families, therapists, and allies - the harder it will be for decision makers to ignore the devastating consequences of this pricing decision.
