NewAccess evaluation
The program was independently evaluated by Ernst&Young in December 2015, it showed:
- A 67.5 per cent recovery rate in people that have participated in the program.
- NewAccess is both clinically successful and economically viable.
- NewAccess appeals to Australians – for every person to make an initial appointment, 88 per cent proceed to treatment and 72 per cent continue treatment to completion.
- NewAccess overcomes stigma – free entry, no medical referral, either face-to-face or over the phone sessions, no labelling and practical exercises help to attract those who do not traditionally seek help.
