As a physiotherapist, living in a small regional town, and a parent of a child with a complex lifelong disability this NDIA proposal hurts in every way. Targeting physiotherapists as different or less than other allied health is outrageous! Targeting travel is short sighted and unfairly hurts those with the least choice (our long searched-for OT currently travels an hour each way to visit us in our home - after all where else can a child learn basic self- care skills - there is no community clinic I know of that has a shower and toilet that would be anything similar to what we use at home!!). These cuts will simply cost- shift to other people and services. Please do better NDIA!
