How Sessional helps
Built for how locum other health professionals actually work
The admin, compliance, and earnings platform for AHPRA-registered locums and independent contractors. Every agency, every direct clinic, every public pool, source-agnostic.
All 15 AHPRA boards supported
Whether you are registered with Podiatry, Optometry, Osteopathy, Chiropractic, Medical Radiation, Chinese Medicine, or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health, Sessional stores the right registration number format and reminds you before renewal.
NDIS caps by profession applied
NDIS 2025-26 caps vary per profession: podiatry $188.99/hr, exercise physiology $166.99/hr, dietetics $188.99/hr. Sessional applies the correct cap against your profession automatically.
State radiation licence tracked
Medical radiation practitioners need a state radiation licence (NSW EPA, VIC DHHS, etc). Sessional stores the licence and warns before expiry.
Super, GST, and PSI for sole traders
Most long-tail AHPRA professionals work as sole traders. Sessional models ATO income tax, Medicare levy, GST at the $75k threshold, and PSI exposure so the tax bill does not surprise you.
State by state
AHPRA is national. Your secondary credentials are not.
Radiation licensing for medical radiation practitioners is state-administered and not reciprocal. WWCC labels for paediatric NDIS work vary per state. Sessional stores the current state against your profile so prompts match your jurisdiction.
AHPRA verified
Your AHPRA number on your profile
Your AHPRA number appears on every invoice you generate and on your public profile. Workplaces verify your AHPRA registration at a glance. No back-and-forth emails, no chasing paperwork.
Sessional Australia is source-agnostic. Track every channel in one place.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
How much does Sessional Australia cost for locum other health professionals?
Sessional Australia offers three tiers (AUD). Free ($0) covers shift tracking, a public profile, and basic invoicing. Plus ($29.99/month) adds unlimited shifts, invoicing, expenses, documents, and tax planning. Pro ($39.99/month) adds API access, Xero sync, and advanced reporting. No commission on any plan.
What does Sessional Australia track for other health professionals?
Every shift with date, rate type (hourly, daily, per-session, or percentage of billings), and workplace. Invoices, expenses with ATO cents-per-km, professional documents including your AHPRA registration, and tax planning for sole trader, Pty Ltd, or Trust structures. All income streams (agency, direct, public, NDIS) in one place.
Is Sessional Australia a locum marketplace?
No. Sessional Australia is the admin, compliance, and earnings platform. We do not compete as a marketplace and we do not take a commission on your work. Keep using Wavelength, Medrecruit, Ochre, HealthCare Australia, direct clinic relationships, and any other source that works for you. Sessional unifies the admin side across all of them.
Does Sessional Australia work with AHPRA registration?
Yes. Sessional Australia understands AHPRA registration and your AHPRA number. It appears on every invoice you generate and on your public profile, so workplaces can verify your AHPRA registration at a glance.
Does Sessional Australia handle percentage-of-billings arrangements?
Yes. Each shift is logged with a rate type: hourly, daily, per-session, or percentage of billings. Percentage-of-billings shifts skip the invoice step because the workplace bills Medicare or the patient and pays you a net share. Sessional handles the split automatically on the earnings dashboard and tax planner.
