What the service does

The Continence Aids Payment Scheme helps cover some of the cost of products that help people manage incontinence (problems with bladder or bowel control). To receive this payment, a person must meet certain criteria. The scheme is for Australian citizens and permanent residents. It is available to people aged 5 years and over who have ongoing and severe incontinence. A registered health professional must confirm this. The website has more information about who can apply. This support is available across Australia.
