Veterans Healthcare Cap Under Fire | Perth News
Description
A new bill threatens to cap allied health treatments for veterans at $5,000—triggering fierce backlash from Senator Jacqui Lambie and the Greens. They argue this could devastate mental and physical health outcomes for vulnerable service members, demanding treatment be unlimited in scope and frequency. With over 31,000 petition signatures, public support is mounting—and while the ruling party holds the numbers to push through the cap, the debate has ignited a national reckoning over veteran care.
