Post Intervention Therapy (PIT) funding is a brokerage fund available to provide additional physiotherapy services for children/adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) following orthopaedic surgery. PIT funding allows physiotherapists (usually their regular community physiotherapist) to work more closely with the child to assist in achieving the goals of the surgery in the post-acute period. The goals should be decided in collaboration with the surgeon, physiotherapist, the family and the child. PIT should not be used for ongoing management and monitoring, only for direct physiotherapy related to orthopaedic surgical intervention.

The PIT funding scheme is administered by the Complex Care Hub at The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH), but day to day liaison with community physiotherapists is via the PIT coordinator in the Physiotherapy Department of the RCH.
