As a speech pathologist, I’m deeply committed to delivering high-quality care for people with communication and swallowing needs. But purpose alone cannot keep services running.
Rising costs, frozen NDIS price limits, and ongoing underfunding are pushing providers to breaking point – especially those delivering care in homes, schools, and regional communities.
We need sustainable pricing to ensure continued access to care under the NDIS.
I’m calling for:
Reversal of the 50% travel rate cut
An immediate price uplift for therapy
Indexed pricing going forward
Independent pricing oversight
Genuine consultation with providers and people with disability
I’ve written to my MP and I encourage you to do the same: https://bit.ly/4jW1oje
