We have updated all NCP documents to provide updated indexed NCP payment rates, clarity regarding the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM) training term sub-types and additional information on new GP Incentive Payments. 

All updates have been made in consultation with ACRRM, the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) and Services Australia.

From semester 1, 2026 all NCP payments will be indexed annually, this includes supervisor, practice, registrar and salary support payments. You can find all indexation updates in the payment rate tables .

ACRRM training term subtypes will be used to determine supervisor and practice payment rates. You can find all updates in the relevant payment section.

GP Training Incentive Payments are payments for registrars. We have made updates to include high-level information about the incentives. Find more information about GP Training Incentive Payments policies, including eligibility, payment rates and processes.
