Key Changes in NDIS Pricing for 2024

The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has revealed significant adjustments to the NDIS pricing structure, set to take effect on July 1, 2024.

Here’s a brief summary of the main changes and their potential impact on you

Overview of Recent Wage Increases

The Fair Work Commission’s decision to raise minimum wages and superannuation will be implemented, guaranteeing fair compensation for NDIS workers.

Key Drivers Behind the 2024 Price Limit Changes

  • Level 1 support coordination will see increased price limits to align with the new minimum wage rates established by the Fair Work Commission’s annual wage review. These adjustments also extend to several other supports within the Disability Support Worker Cost Model.
  • For therapy services (excluding psychologists) and Level 2 and 3 support coordination, current pricing arrangements and limits will remain the same.
  • Price limits for psychologists, nurses, and other health professionals have been raised to accommodate increases in wages and the cost of living.

Recent Changes in Cancellation Policies for 2024

The cancellation period on short notice for supports not related to Disability Support Workers has been reduced to two business days.

The requirement for a seven-day notice period for Disability Support Worker supports remains in effect.

Understanding Temporary Transformation Payments

After being gradually reduced last year, temporary transformation payments have now been discontinued, effective immediately.

Implications for Individuals

Your NDIS plan will undergo updates beginning in July, with funding adjustments scheduled for July 13 to align with the revised rates.
