DVA physiotherapy and exercise physiology at home

You should not have to guess whether a home visit can be arranged under DVA. We can talk through physiotherapy and exercise physiology at home for eligible veterans and war widows, without publishing card rules or promising an approval.

What we can and cannot say

Eligible veterans and war widows may be able to use physiotherapy or exercise physiology at home under DVA. Whether that applies to you depends on your entitlements and any referral rules.

We do not publish Gold Card or White Card rules, item numbers, session caps, or approval outcomes. The planning call is where we look at your paperwork with you.

Who this is for

Veterans, war widows, and widowers considering a home visit, and families helping with the paperwork.

What the visit can be

Physiotherapy at home, or exercise physiology at home. Alera does not offer occupational therapy or NDIS services. The service pages are physiotherapy at home and exercise physiology at home.

Paperwork

Bring any DVA card details and paperwork you already have. We go through what applies to you on the 15-minute call.

Where to go next
