Heads of Agreement on the National Health Reform Agreement, National Disability Insurance Scheme reforms and Foundational Supports between Commonwealth and States and Territory governments

The Heads of Agreement outlines the agreed funding to state and territory hospitals and additional reforms to secure the future of the NDIS. These reforms will ensure Australians can continue to access health care and disability supports.

The agreement prioritises investment in our public health system, builds on the Commonwealth’s measure to strengthen Medicare, and is a step forward in addressing growing pressures on our health and aged care systems and the NDIS, ensuring their sustainable delivery into the future.

The agreement came into effect on 30 January 2026, when it was signed by National Cabinet.
