Healthcare & NDIS Payroll Software for Australian Providers

Simplify award-compliant payroll for healthcare, aged care, and NDIS provider businesses with BetterPayroll’s purpose-built automation and compliance tools.

Why Healthcare & NDIS Providers Choose BetterPayroll

Talent & Payroll Skills Shortage

A shortage of qualified payroll professionals makes manual systems risky. Switching to BetterPayroll’s automated platform reduces error rates, 59% of organisations report payroll issues due to fragmented systems and manual entry.

Complex Workforce Management

Healthcare and social assistance is Australia’s largest employer sector with over 2.2 million workers, 77% of whom are female and often employed as casual or part-time staff under SCHADS, Health Professionals, or Aged Care Awards—making payroll accuracy a persistent challenge.

Compliance Risks & Wage Theft Concerns

With 10% of NDIS providers admitting they underpaid staff in 2021, the risk of wage theft under tightened Fair Work laws is real. BetterPayroll helps eliminate this risk with built-in award interpretation and validation.
