The proposal would provide $10 million over 3 years to support primary healthcare providers to improve their skills and knowledge to deliver inclusive LGBTIQA+ healthcare. A training provider will be selected through a competitive grants process.

The funding will also support the introduction of a voluntary accreditation program so that healthcare providers can be recognised for meeting best practice for LGBTIQA+ care, helping patients identify safe and trusted services.

The funding will be profiled as $4 million in 2025-26 and $3 million in both 2026-27 and 2027-28.

The proposal would be non-ongoing and start from 1 July 2025.
