Eight not-for-profit clinics are placed under voluntary administration, as the group's bosses blame the end of JobKeeper for the charity's failure.

Eight not-for-profit clinics in Canberra, run by The National Health Co-op , have been placed under administration as the charity's bosses say the end of JobKeeper has made it impossible to continue their work.The not-for-profit group ran eight clinics in the ACT, which provided health services to 30,000 Canberrans for a small annual fee

"It's essential that we retain employees. I addressed them yesterday and I'll be at each of the clinics over the next week and having further discussions with employees. So, at the moment we're trying to hold it all together," Mr Slaven said. "We understand the NHC will continue to trade on a business-as-usual basis for the time being, with no disruption to services."

Another woman said the service was particularly handy for people with chronic illnesses, requiring multiple medical appointments.

If a healthcare business needed Jobkeeper to survive it obviously wasn't viable.

The statement on their website says they are still functioning as normal - no disruption to services but they are in voluntary administration due to debt. So your headline is clickbait bullshit.
