Information update August 2021 Victorian Occupational Therapy Driver Assessors Important Information Licence holders are required to cover the costs of their occupational therapy driver assessments. Occupational therapy driving assessors (OTs) are independent health practitioners and not employees of VicRoads. The named AHPRA registered OTs are independent of VicRoads. VicRoads does not endorse or approve any OT on the list. The names and contact details are provided for information purposes only. Costs and charges for an occupational therapy driver assessment can vary, depending on location, test complexity, duration and reassessment requirements. VicRoads does not regulate their fees. It is recommended that drivers discuss fees and charges with their OT driving assessor before they make an assessment booking. This Occupational therapist driver assessor list is sorted by service area regions (metropolitan and rural areas). How to use this list Please review the attached list to find a suitable OT experienced in driver assessments. Your local hospital or medical centre may also be able to assist you to find a suitable OT. OTs generally work in specific geographical areas. Choose an OT from the list who works in your area. Occupational Therapy driver assessments may be partly or fully paid by an insurance scheme or through health services if you meet eligibility criteria. For example: • Rehabilitation services available through public/private hospitals or community health services if you have obtained treatment for a health condition (e.g. stroke, neurological or mental health condition) • TAC or WorkCover if you have transport or work injuries • Department of Veterans Affairs Health Card recipients may be able to access funding if vehicle modification prescription is required due to injury incurred during service. • Private health insurance • National Disability Insurance Scheme Your GP, medical specialist, the occupational therapy department at your local hospital or health centre, or the Disability/Aged care co-ordinator at your council may be able to help. Centrelink may offer loan schemes to support funding the cost of driver assessment and rehabilitation. This should be discussed with the OT at the time of booking the assessment. If you've previously spoken to an OT about a driver assessment, please contact them in the first instance ahead of ringing someone you don't know on the list. You may have a limited timeframe to complete the occupational therapy driver assessment. Please make contact with your chosen OT as soon as possible, to ensure your assessment can be completed within the designated timeframe.
