It should be about access to the care required by the right person, right location and right time. It’s time to look at all health practitioners scope of practice and enable them to use it. Australian Physiotherapy Association APA President

Congratulations Rik Dawson as you take on the role of President No 23! You have the knowledge and team around you to articulate how important #physio is in a modern and future focused health system. 🙏🙏

It would be very wise to fund alternate models of care like non operative OA care, direct referrals to specialists and imaging and preventative healthcare - now that is true health reform that saves money and improves outcomes.

#physios assist many women across their lifetime to ensure they can live a pain free, optimal life. This is a welcome announcement and one the Australian Physiotherapy Association have been Advocating for for many years. 🙏

It’s time to ensure all women have access to best practice care in Primary Health Care when they need it and where they need it. No Australian should be left behind. #physio

What would be even more cost savings would be if the consumer didn’t have to see a GP - investment in preventative care, better care pathways, integrated true primary health care outside of the GP surgery and funding high value care that delivers outcomes. Australian Physiotherapy Association

This is a great investment for all Australians. Investing into preventative care, better pathways, high value primary health care that occurs outside general practice is the next step to see true health reform. Integrated MDT care cannot be underestimated. Australian Physiotherapy Association #physio

Funding is one area of concern for Rural and remote Health workers but enabling the use of full scope of practice, preventative health and patient pathways will actually save money to reinvest into these areas. It’s time for true health reform on top of Medicare funding.

It would be better economics and health outcomes to invest in Multidisciplinary care to assist GP’s manage the chronic disease issue that we are seeing post pandemic. It’s teamwork that will see better health outcomes and not fragmentation. Australian Physiotherapy Association

An election budget and no real focus on health reform like improving access to quality multidisciplinary care, high value care or system changes to Medicare to make it contemporary and fit for the future. It’s not about more money but better ways of spending it. Australian Physiotherapy Association

Better outcomes if investments were for ensuring access to the care that consumers need, when they need. Prevention, full scope, alternate pathways to care and it may not be through a GP. Australian Physiotherapy Association

$1.8B for public health - to reduce waiting lists and emergency waiting times. #Physio would be the key to offer high value non operative care and #physios in emergency can assist in throughput! Australian Physiotherapy Association

We need a government that is serious about access to care at the right time, right place by right practitioner. Our Medicare system has been great but it is old and outdated. We need a vision for the future and not just more funding. Australian Physiotherapy Association #physio #Election2025
