The 2022-23 APR coincides with the broader NDIS Review. As such, the scope of the 2022-23 APR has been carefully defined to limit potential overlap with the NDIS Review.
The 2022-23 APR scope looked at pricing arrangements and price limits that apply to:
- Disability Support Worker (DSW) related supports
- Therapy supports
- Support coordination
- Plan management.
To help inform the 2022-23 APR, we engaged participants, providers and other stakeholders by releasing the 2022-23 APR Consultation Paper in March 2023.
In addition to evaluating the 304 submissions received in response to the Consultation Paper, we also consulted with:
- other government insurance and funding schemes
- the Pricing Arrangements Reference Group
- the Pricing Interdepartmental Committee
- the Department of Veterans' Affairs and the Chief Allied Health Officer.
