1. Flexible payments update

This is a reminder that flexible payments are available for 2025.

ACRRM is encouraging applications from training posts and supervisors for flexible funding to support upskilling and capacity building to take their growing numbers of registrars.

Flexible payments support training posts with the additional costs incurred when training registrars in rural and remote general practice settings in MMM 2-7 locations, ensuring practices have adequate capacity to train registrars.

Purposes for funding that may be approved include costs associated directly with:

• recruitment
• professional development, training and education for staff - including additional supervisors
• developing training capability and capacity
• infrastructure

Flexible Funds are available to eligible supervisors to subsidise costs of additional supervision, professional development, education, and training, aligning to MMM 2 – 7 locations. They cover:

• professional development payment ($2,000) for principal supervisors – paid directly to the supervisor
• professional development for additional supervisors – paid through the practice
• additional supervision / teaching (with an ACRRM-approved plan)
• remote supervision allowance (with a plan approved through ACRRM)

More information is available on the resources section of the ACRRM website. For questions or assistance, please email [email protected] or phone 1800 223 226.
