DVA Treatment Cycle Initiative update
The Department of Veterans’ Affairs Treatment Cycle is set to go ahead on 1 October and the APA has been working with the department on a number of components.
We have advocated strongly to secure a report writing fee in the fee schedule for allied health providers in recognition of the additional work involved in administering the initiative. DVA has agreed to a $30 fee and to creating a simple report template for allied health providers to use when reporting on their patients’ conditions to GPs.
