National Travel Assistance (NTA) Scheme
The National Travel Assistance (NTA) Policy

The National Travel Assistance Scheme is funded according to the National Travel Assistance Policy Document effective from 1 January 2006. It is published and will be amended from time to time by the Ministry of Health.

The National Travel Assistance Policy Document is available from this website or by calling freephone 0800 281 222 (press option 2).

Where information on this page or advice provided by the Ministry of Health seems to be different to the National Travel Assistance Policy Document, then in all cases the National Travel Assistance Policy Document prevails.

Please note
The NTA Policy 2005 high frequency eligibility category has changed from the eligibility of 26 or more visits in 2 months to 22 or more visits in 2 months. The NTA Policy 2005 document will be updated in due course to reflect this Policy change.
