Draft IHACPA Work Program and Corporate Plan 2023–24

On 12 August 2022, amendments to the National Health Reform Act 2011 came into effect, changing the Independent Hospital Pricing Authority’s name to the Independent Health and Aged Care Pricing Authority and expanding its role to include the provision of aged care costing and pricing advice to the Commonwealth Government. This is the first Work Program and Corporate Plan that integrates these expanded functions.

Please provide your submission by 5pm AEST Friday, 7 April 2023.

Submission options:

• Email your response in Word, PDF or RTF format to submissions.ihacpa@ihacpa.gov.au
• Handwritten and typed hard copy submissions can also be mailed to:

Unless respondents specifically request that their submission or parts of their submission should not be released, all submissions will be published on IHACPA’s website after the close of the consultation period.

IHACPA retains, at its absolute discretion, the right not to publish any submissions or part thereof, where it considers it appropriate to do so. Circumstances in which IHACPA may consider making the decision not to publish either the whole submission or part thereof, include that the submission:

• may contain information that is commercially sensitive
