The proposed NDIS price guide changes will have significant impacts on individuals and allied health professionals, especially in regional and remote areas.
Access to services will be reduced for individuals and families with therapy needs, with a 50% price reduction in provider travel costs as a recommendation.
There is a lot of action by the allied health world but we need your help to reverse the recommendations.
Please read below and sign the petition and email the relevant people to help our voice to be heard.
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.
