This FOI disclosure contains a grant application for the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing's Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Clinic (EPPC) expansion program. The Hunter New England and Central Coast Primary Health Network (HNECC PHN) sought funding to establish a new EPPC on the NSW Central Coast, with the Central Coast Community Women's Health Centre (CCCWHC) identified as the preferred provider. The proposed clinic would operate a multidisciplinary team model including a women's health GP, pelvic physiotherapist, nurse, social worker, and potentially a psychologist, delivering integrated, trauma-informed care across three locations. The application outlines plans for staff advanced training in endometriosis and pelvic pain management, exploration of virtual care options to expand accessibility, establishment of community support groups, and a lifespan-focused care approach. Funding of $20 million for 2025-26 was sought through the Community Grants Hub, with applications closing 11 August 2025.
