"Understanding SDA Pricing”
"Our NDIS Pricing: Ensuring Transparency and Quality"
Our commitment to transparency extends to the pricing arrangements for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). The SDA pricing arrangement, formerly referred to as the price guide, is a concise summary of the price limits applicable to NDIS participants' SDA providers.
We're dedicated to making this complex landscape more accessible for our community, ensuring you have the knowledge you need to make informed decisions about your SDA support. If you have any questions or need further guidance, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to assist you every step of the way."
"Understanding Pricing for Home Modifications, Assistive Technology, and Consumables”
When it comes to some of the most commonly used supports, like assistive technology (AT), home modifications, and consumables, it's essential to be aware of the NDIA's pricing guidelines.
For assistive technology, the NDIA has set different price limits based on the following criteria:
Mid-cost assistive technology, priced between $1,500 and $15,000 per item.
High-cost assistive technology, exceeding $15,000 per item.
If your AT is valued under $15,000, there's generally no need to provide quotes to the NDIS. However, for ATs exceeding $1,500, written evidence is required. It's worth noting that price limits for AT assessment, training, and guidance are typically funded through the capacity-building support category. Although AT and home modifications fall under the capital support budget, ensuring you receive the right support and services"

"Understanding the Pricing for Disability Support Workers”
For many NDIS participants, the invaluable assistance of a qualified disability support worker is a daily necessity. These dedicated professionals provide vital support with personal care, transportation, and often become cherished companions. The NDIA's pricing model for disability support workers sets the price limits for each billable hour.
The NDIS pricing guide takes into account the worker's level of experience and includes various components such as base pay, holiday pay, employee allowances, non-billable activities, supervision costs, and more.
To ensure affordability and quality in meeting the needs of NDIS participants, families, carers, and providers, the NDIS pricing arrangements are thoughtfully reviewed every few months. This commitment is aimed at maintaining a delicate balance between accessible pricing and the high-quality services that our valued NDIS community deserves."

"NDIS Price Guide FAQs"
Does the NDIS price guide change every year?
Yes, the NDIS price guide undergoes revisions every few months. These updates are made in accordance with NDIA guidelines to ensure that Australians living with disabilities, both present and future, receive the best value from the support provided by NDIS service providers.
What is an NDIS Support Catalogue?
The NDIA sets maximum prices for each support and service they deliver to NDIS participants. The support catalogue compiles a comprehensive list of available support for providers when requesting payments. It also offers insights into past and current support items, categorising each item by claim type (e.g., transport, food).
Can participants or providers negotiate lower prices?
Absolutely, they can! The NDIS price guide establishes maximum pricing limits for supports and services. Participants and NDIS service providers can negotiate prices before formalising a service agreement.
Can participants purchase AT support as a subscription?
Yes, participants can access support in advance by purchasing a subscription. They can utilise these supports during the agreed-upon subscription period.
I am a self-managed participant; do I pay the cost to my AT provider directly?
Yes, self-managed participants can directly pay their AT provider. They should ensure that their AT provider's costs align with the items listed in the NDIS pricing guide.
Can providers claim PPE costs from a participant’s NDIS plan?
Starting January 1, 2022, providers are no longer permitted to claim the cost of personal protective equipment (PPE) from a participant's NDIS plan.
Can my NDIS provider claim for more than one support worker?
The NDIS pricing arrangement clearly specifies that participants or their providers can claim the time of multiple therapists or support workers when delivering support.
I am an NDIS participant based in Adelaide; will my pricing arrangement change?
