The opportunity

A non-competitive panel.
Every provider that meets the bar gets contracted.

DVA Community Nursing isn't a tender — there's no bidding, no scoring. The only question is whether you're ready before 30 June 2026. Same nurses, same care model as your NDIS or aged care work — different funding stream.

The process

Six steps from "I'm interested"
to "I'm contracted."

  1. 01

    Strategy & scoping

    Confirm eligibility, entity structure, RN/EN capability, insurance, and your Local Government Area coverage.

  2. 02

    Document development

    We build your full DVA-ready policy suite, forms and registers — branded and tailored. Unlimited revisions.

  3. 03

    Application preparation

    We complete the Pro Forma on Administrative Information and Terms and Conditions, with the geographic matrix and any subcontractor declarations.

  4. 04

    Lodgement

    Your signed Terms and Conditions and completed Pro Forma go into DVA's CNS16 application inbox.

  5. 05

    DVA liaison & RFI

    We manage every DVA query on your behalf — supporting documents, clarifications, follow-up — until your provider number is issued.

  6. 06

    Operational readiness

    Medicare claiming setup, MDS submission and referrer outreach guidance so you can accept your first referral.

actually walks the road with you.

FAQ

Straight answers.
No inflated promises.

Do I need an RN or EN on staff?+

Yes. Nursing capability is the entry gate for DVA Community Nursing. Most NDIS, aged care and home care providers already meet this requirement.

Is this a tender we have to win?+

No. CNS16 is a non-competitive panel — every provider that meets the requirements gets contracted. There's no bidding or scoring.

When should I start?+

To lodge cleanly before 30 June 2026, we recommend starting no later than end of May 2026 to allow time for any DVA requests for further information.

Does DVA replace NDIS or aged care work?+

No — it sits alongside. Same nurses, same care model, different funding stream, no client co-payments.

What if DVA doesn't accept my application?+

100% refund. We don't get paid unless you get contracted.
