We will delve into how we safeguard participants and providers from our perspective as plan managers. We will detail how our software system has built-in layers to alert us to spending outside of what was agreed upon according to service agreements and the importance of communication.

We are excited to have Dan Stubbs, the commissioner and head of the Victorian Disability Workers Commission, as a guest speaker.
