Two-Tier Media Coverage 27 December 2020

Dear AAPi Community,

 

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. As you know, we have been continuing to make great progress on bringing attention to the two-tier Medicare rebate, that limits access to the vital services provided by registered psychologists and creates division and disparity amongst the range of psychologists in Australia. 

 

While we continue to advocate for change directly with members of government, we also bring awareness to the issue and add weight to our influence with media coverage drawing attention to the changes needed. And one such example are the three articles that we secured over the weekend, reaching well over a million readers.

 

Please see below the articles that highlight the position of AAPi members. We encourage you to share these within your networks.
