Provides dental services to children between 2 and 17 years of age and allows elligible children to claim up to $1000 of dental care per calendar from dental services including private services.
Bulk billing services will mean no claim form needs to be completed. A bulk billing private dentist means that there is no wait list for a public dentist and the clients will not be out of pocket.
What are the peak bodies saying. We hear from CHP, CHFV and VCOSS
Council to Homeless Persons (CHP)
The Council to Homeless persons has congratulated the Victorian Government on the significant investments in housing, homelessness and family violence announced in this year's State Budget. While many of the commitments outlined in the Budget had been announced previously, they are worth recognising a second time; in particular, the Government’s major housing centrepiece Homes for Victorians, which includes $1 billion commitment to a Social Housing Growth fund. The other big news in this year's budget was the $1.9 billion investment in family violence services. Given the insidious relationship between homelessness and family violence, this commitment is highly commended.
