We’re pleased to share that the QLD Health Audiology Decision RIS Consultation Paper 2  has now been released. This represents an important milestone in the journey toward audiology’s inclusion in the National Registration and Accreditation Scheme (NRAS). Following the Ministerial Council's in-principle agreement in August 2024, further consultations are now underway to shape the final decision. 

IAA’s Role in the Process
Independent Audiologists Australia (IAA) has been invited to participate in a focused interview with the Audiology Decision-RIS Project Team. This is an invaluable opportunity to share insights into our profession’s service delivery and regulatory processes, ensuring independent audiologists have a strong voice in shaping the future.

Public Submission Opportunity
From the week of 9 December 2024, a public submission process will be live on the Queensland Health website. This is a key chance for members and stakeholders to share their perspectives directly with the Audiology Decision-RIS Project Team. 

If you’d like to contribute to IAA’s response or have any questions, please reach out to us by email here. Alternatively, you can contact the Deloitte Audiology Decision-RIS Project Team directly here. We look forward to sharing further updates as they become available.
