Company Profile

Avina Therapy is a specialised allied health and behaviour support provider operating across metropolitan and regional New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, and South Australia. We support children, adults and seniors living with disability through NDIS, Medicare, and private funding pathways, delivering services in clinic, community, and via telehealth.

Our multidisciplinary team provides Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology, Positive Behaviour Support, Psychology, Dietetics, and Physiotherapy. We are a registered NDIS provider (No. 4050011910) committed to evidence-based, neuro-affirming care shaped around each person's goals and life.

At Avina, we build real relationships — with our clients, their families, and with each other. Our culture is grounded in six values: Progressive, Curious, Respectful, Collaborative, Informed, and Purposeful.

Position Purpose

The Billing Officer is responsible for Avina Therapy’s end-to-end invoicing function, ensuring all services are billed accurately, claims are submitted on time, and payments are received across NDIS, Medicare, DVA and other funding streams.

Reporting to the Billing and Claims Manager, this role also supports the Finance Manager with creditor and debtor payments and general ledger reconciliation. It bridges finance and clinical operations by coordinating billing activity with therapists and feeding revenue data back to management, playing an important role in both the organisation’s financial performance and the participant experience.

Delegation of Authority

The Billing Officer does not have authority to approve write offs, agree payment plans or waive fees. Decisions of this nature must be escalated to the Billing and Claims Manager or the Finance Manager in accordance with Avina Therapy’s Delegation of Authority Policy. Referrals to debt recovery partners require approval from the Billing and Claims Manager.
