NDIS pricing cuts are unsustainable

 

NDIS pricing cuts are unsustainable—add your voice to our national campaign

As a healthcare professional working within the NDIS, you understand the true value of quality care—and the serious consequences of the recent NDIA price reductions. These cuts are not just unworkable; they threaten access to essential supports across the board.

We risk losing skilled clinicians from the scheme, reducing choice and access for participants, and placing greater strain on an already stretched health system.

Now is the time to stand together—to protect the viability of our professions and, most importantly, safeguard the people we are here to support.

Here's how you can take action

We’ve made it easy for health care professionals to advocate for change.

  • Sign the petition: The APA has come together with other peak industry bodies to call on the federal government to reverse these changes and protect fair, person-centred care. Add your voice!

  • Contact your MP:
    Email your MP using the easy email tool below.
    Call your representatives directly: suggested talking points are there to get you started. Enter your address to identify your electorate and start the conversation.
     
  • Share your story: If you or your patients have faced challenges, or seen the value, in accessing physiotherapy through the NDIS, we want to hear from you.
     
  • Follow us and share on social media: Connect with us on: Facebook   |   X   |   Instagram   |   LinkedIn   |   Youtube
     
  • Engage with local media: Submit a letter to the editor of your local newspaper or call into your local radio station.
     
  • Engage your NDIS participants: Use these toolkit resources to encourage your participants and personal networks to join the campaign—including a letter/email template, social media content and poster/flyer you can display with patients. Browse these assets using our Canva link and you can download them by setting up a free Canva account. Email us for assistance.

      

 

We've built a quick and effective tool to help you reach your local MP.

In just a few minutes, you can send a letter that highlights the impact of these changes from the frontline. The more voices we raise, the harder we are to ignore.

How it works:

  1. Add your details so we can identify your federal MP
  2. Personalise the template letter—you can include practice insights or patient experiences (de-identified)
  3. Click and send and we'll deliver the letter straight to your MP's inbox.

Tip: Letters with a personal message have more impact—speak from experience.
