Default Re: Trends and Choices

I think in the coming months, we're going to start to see a backlash against every man and his dog getting an autism diagnosis.

I saw a quote that said 1 in 10 boys aged between 5 and 7 is now on the NDIS

That is primarily due to the explosion in ASD diagnoses. In essence, autism is the easiest way onto NDIS now, and parents are chasing the free money. There is simply no way that amount of kids need to be on disability support.

If the rate of growth of NDIS participants continues as it has recently, it will eclipse the medicare budget within a few years. More will be spent on disability than is currently being spent on ALL healthcare........
