The number of physiotherapists who were available for referral is declining.

Urgency:

High

Veteran Community Needs Affected:

Good Physical Health, Good Mental Health

Issue Details

We have had a good pool of physiotherapists to whom we refer veterans, and some have been withdrawing their service. When asked, they state that they can't sustain their business on the current funding model and feel they can't do their job for veterans with complex conditions. 

Likely Cause of the Issue

The current model restricts veterans to receiving treatment for only one condition per day. 

Possible Solution

Pay more quickly and raise reimbursement to closer to cost and other schemes.
