Built for Speech Pathology Practice Owners
Speech pathology practices are among the fastest-growing in the NDIS ecosystem — and among the most exposed to billing errors, contractor misclassification, and the financial complexity of running a paediatric-heavy caseload.
The Challenges Your Practice Faces
Every discipline has its own commercial complexity. Here’s what we see most often — and how we address it.
NDIS Billing Complexity
Speech pathology has some of the most complex NDIS line items. Billing errors are common and costly. We build systems that get it right.
Paediatric Caseload Economics
High paediatric volume means high admin, waitlists, and parent communication overhead. We help you price and structure for profitability.
Contractor vs Employee
Many speech pathology practices use contractors. ATO scrutiny is increasing — we ensure your arrangements are compliant.
Telehealth Revenue
Telehealth has changed the economics of speech pathology. We help you structure and price your telehealth offering correctly.
Practice Profitability
Revenue looks good but profit is thin. We identify where the margin is leaking and fix it.
Growth & Multi-Site
Expanding a speech pathology practice requires financial infrastructure. We build it before you sign the next lease.
How We Work With You
The CARE Framework is Shuriken’s proprietary methodology for building allied health practices that are commercially strong, resilient, and exit-ready.
Clarity
Monthly reporting on NDIS vs private revenue, clinician utilisation, and practice profitability — not just a year-end tax return.
Accountability

Risk & Resilience
