This is going to impact a lot of businesses and their ability to stay afloat especially those who have salaried employees.
OTs are at breaking point.
The NDIA has made a devastating pricing decisionโone 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 โ and we need your voice!
Hereโs 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.
