Submission: Seeking approval of the osteopathic profession to work within the WA workplace rehabilitation sector
We have lodged a formal submission for the recognition of the osteopathic profession within the Western Australian Workplace rehabilitation Scheme as a part of the Modernising WA's Workers Compensation Laws public consultation.
UPDATE: Unfortunately, this submission has been unsuccessful with WorkCover WA stating that there currently is no perceived gap in the provision of rehabilitation services to injured workers and thus they do not wish to broaden the group of professions able to provide these services.
Osteopathy Australia will continue to advocate in this space as appropriate.
