Who is the TAC?
If you've been injured in a transport accident, the TAC is a Victorian Government-owned organisation who is there to support you. The funds the TAC needs to perform the roles of road safety promotion and road trauma support come from payments made by Victorian motor vehicle registration fees.
How Do I Get Approval To See A Physio Through TAC?
In many cases you don’t need prior approval!
Within the first 90 days of an accident, TAC will pay for some treatments and services without prior approval. Any treatment or service must be recommended by a health professional, relate to the injuries sustained in the accident and be delivered within the TAC Clinical Framework. This streamlined approach allows you to get the therapy you need when you need it, cutting out the red tape and letting you focus on what’s important…. getting better.
When do you need to seek TAC approval?
The treatment or service is on the TAC list of services that require prior approval
The treatment or service is on the approved list by TAC but it is approaching or more than 90 days of the accident and prior approval hasn’t been sought
More than 6 months have passed since any TAC support
