Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document officially cancels (revokes) the Health Insurance (Requirements for Allied Health Professionals) Determination 2005.

What this does:

Removes the 2005 rules that set out requirements for allied health professionals (such as physiotherapists, psychologists, and podiatrists) to claim Medicare benefits.
Takes effect on 1 November 2006 (though it was signed on 27 October 2006).
Legal basis: The Minister for Health and Ageing used powers under the Health Insurance Regulations 1975 to make this change.

Why it matters: This strips away the specific regulatory framework that had governed how allied health professionals qualified for health insurance benefits since 2005. Practitioners and patients would need to look to other legislation or replacement rules to understand what requirements applied after this date.
