What the service does
The Isolated Patient Travel and Accommodation Scheme (IPTAAS) helps people in New South Wales who need to travel for medical treatment. It can help pay for travel and accommodation costs. This is for people who live in regional or remote areas. People may be eligible if travel is at least 100 km one way, or 200 km in one week, for treatment. A doctor must confirm the treatment and need for travel as part of the application. People must meet certain criteria to access this scheme.
