At the end of June, the NDIA announced changes to (NDIS) pricing, ahead of proposed broader reforms that will strengthen the NDIS provider market.

The NDIS Pricing Review takes place annually and sets the maximum price limits that NDIS providers and health professionals are allowed to charge for services they provide to NDIS participants.

In 2024, the Annual Price Review (APR) included the following key changes:

• Fully implementing the Fair Work Commission's decision to increase minimum wages in awards and superannuation, ensuring providers can fairly compensate their workers. 
• Increasing price limits for supports that are determined by the NDIS DSW Cost Model, including Level 1 support coordination services, to reflect changes in the minimum wages following the Fair Work Commission’s Annual Wage Review.
• Increasing the price limits for psychologists, nurses and other supports based on wage and cost of living increases. 
• Maintaining existing pricing arrangements and price limits for therapy (except for psychologists) and support coordination level 2 and 3. 
• Adjusting short-notice cancellation period for non-Disability Support Worker-related supports to 2 business days to better reflect market norms.
