What are allied health disciplines?
Allied health disciplines are regulated health professions that assess, treat, and support people outside of medicine and nursing. The group covers occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech pathology, podiatry, dietetics, psychology, and exercise physiology, with most professions requiring registration through the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency or accreditation with a national professional association (AHPRA, 2025). NDIS and aged care programs fund each discipline as a distinct support type rather than folding them into one generic therapy line.
How to choose a provider for this service
The list above is ranked using the criteria explained in the methodology above it. Four checks matter specifically when comparing allied health providers.
Registration. Confirm the therapist’s AHPRA registration for occupational therapy, physiotherapy, psychology, and podiatry, or accreditation with the relevant professional body for dietetics and exercise physiology.
Response time. A provider listing several disciplines can still reply unevenly by profession; check the response-time table further down this page rather than a general promise.
Pricing transparency. Ask for a rate card broken down by discipline, since NDIS hourly price limits differ across each profession.
Coverage. Carevo lists 7,072 allied health providers nationally, but not every discipline is rostered in every suburb; confirm the specific therapist type you need is actually staffed in your area before booking.
Which funding pays for allied health therapy, and who qualifies?
NDIS participants access allied health disciplines under the Capacity Building - Improved Daily Living support category, funded once a plan includes a stated goal linked to the person’s disability; a plan manager or support coordinator confirms which disciplines and hours are approved (NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, 2025). People 65 and over, or 50 and over for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, access the same disciplines through Support at Home’s Clinical Supports category after assessment through the Single Assessment System, funded with no participant contribution regardless of income or assets (Department of Health and Aged Care, 2025). Lower-intensity, short-term therapy for people not yet assessed for Support at Home is funded through the Commonwealth Home Support Programme.
Availability
Carevo lists 7,072 allied health providers among 28,004 NDIS and 2,619 aged care providers across 4,782 suburbs nationally, with records updated 2026-06-27. Allied health is named in 217 of the 4,347 inquiries tracked on the platform. For a single discipline rather than the full group, compare occupational therapists or physiotherapists directly.
How this page is compiled
The provider rankings and figures on this page come from Carevo platform records, including provider registrations, measured response times and coverage, together with the cited official sources. Carevo is an Australian platform that connects families with vetted NDIS and aged care providers. Carevo does not deliver care itself.
