Timelines vary by registration group and audit complexity. However, HCPA client Maria Therasa Cainto Co reported becoming fully NDIS-registered just over two months after her audit. HCPA's consultants prepare all compliance documentation and guide clients through both Stage 1 and Stage 2 audit processes.
Yes. DVA (Department of Veterans' Affairs) provider registration is one of HCPA's core services. Consultants such as Raymund Jovs Carcido guide clients through the full DVA application, onboarding, and business setup process. Multiple client reviews confirm successful DVA registrations across community nursing and allied health categories.
