How Can I Obtain Funding?

Dedicated funding for pulmonary rehabilitation programs is not currently available in Australia.  However, funding is required to establish and conduct a program.

Potential sources of funding are:

• Physiotherapy departments
• Medicare initiatives (e.g. Medicare-Plus, Team Care-2, etc…).
• Private health funds.
• Dept. of Veteran Affairs initiatives.
• Grant / project funding.
• State and Federal government initiatives.
• Local Area Health funding.
• Chronic and complex care funding.
• Aged care funding.
• Commonwealth rehabilitation services.
• Workcare.
