We break down the timeline, the political drivers, and the critical details that are still up in the air.  Chantelle Robards (Speech Pathologist and NDIS specialist coach with deep policy and provider-side experience) translates policy into practice: potential delivery models (e.g., commissioning through schools/ECEC, possible Medicare line items), risks to referral streams and revenue, and practical responses—scenario planning, data discipline, partnerships, diversification, and measured advocacy with peaks and local MPs. This is a must-listen for any provider wanting to stay informed, mitigate risks, and strategically position their practice for a thriving future.  Topics covered on the proposed Thriving Kids program, NDIS changes, and business strategy:  Understanding Thriving Kids: A clear breakdown of what we currently know about the program, the proposed timeline, and the political tensions between the Commonwealth and states that are shaping its development. Risks vs. Opportunities: A frank discussion on the potential threats to your business model (like a shift to block funding) versus the huge opportunities for growth through new partnerships, service diversification, and potential Medicare funding streams. Future-Proofing your business: Actionable steps you can take right now to prepare. We cover the importance of data analysis, scenario planning, effective advocacy, and clear communication with your team and clients to navigate the transition with confidence.  Resources Mentioned  Thriving Kids Reforms – What Allied Health Business Owners Are Talking About  P.S. Need a little extra support on your business journey? Whether you’re navigating challenges or looking to reach new goals, we’re here to support your growth.   Book a Complimentary Power Call with us, and let’s talk about how we can help you achieve your vision for your Allied Health business.   Midroll Message: Complete our Allied Health Biz Quiz and get a personalised business report in minutes!  Connect with Nacre Consulting:  Let’s connect on Instagram Follow us on Facebook a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/nacreconsultingau" rel="noopener noreferrer"...
