A Different Contractor Model for Registered Music Therapists

At Belong Health, contractors are treated as independent professionals.
You maintain control over:

• The clients you work with
• The types of referrals you accept
• Your working days and hours
• Your preferred clinical areas
• Your caseload size and structure

This allows you to create a workload that aligns with both your professional goals and personal lifestyle.

No KPIs or Productivity Targets

We do not impose:

• Billable hour quotas
• Productivity KPIs
• Forced caseload growth
• Pressure to increase utilisation

Our focus is on:

• Sustainable workloads
• Ethical and person-centred support
• Long-term practitioner alignment
• Professional autonomy

Choose Your Caseload

One of the biggest differences at Belong Health is that contractors are not automatically assigned clients.
Instead, you can:

• Review referrals and waitlists
• Choose which clients you would like to support
• Accept referrals aligned with your interests and experience
• Decline referrals that do not suit your availability or clinical preference

This structure supports stronger clinician-client alignment and more sustainable caseload management.

---

Flexible Working Arrangements

We understand that flexibility is one of the main reasons clinicians choose contracting.
As a Registered Music Therapy contractor with Belong Health, you can:

• Choose the days you want to work
• Adjust your availability throughout the year
• Structure your schedule around personal commitments
• Build a workload that suits your preferred work-life balance

​There are no fixed rosters or mandatory hours.
