Update: The Minister for Disability and the National Disability Insurance Scheme has made his first pricing determination for NDIS supports. This is set out in the pricing schedules.
What the NDIS pricing arrangements are
The Minister’s pricing determination sets maximum prices for supports for the 2026-27 financial year.
The NDIS pricing schedules set out the maximum prices payable for NDIS supports, including specialist disability accommodation (SDA).
The maximum prices in the schedules only apply to NDIA-managed and plan-managed participants.
As per the schedules:
- we can’t pay a claim for an amount more than the maximum price
- participants aren’t entitled to a payment if it is more than the maximum price
- NDIS providers can’t charge more than the maximum price.
You and your providers can continue negotiate what is the appropriate and reasonable price for you and your NDIS supports needs up to the maximum price.
What the NDIS pricing arrangements are for
We regularly review and make changes to NDIS pricing. We consider things like the business costs of delivering NDIS supports and wages for support workers.
NDIS prices need to be fair, based on evidence and sustainable so you can continue to have access to high-quality supports.
