NDIS Price Guide 2023-2024

Overview:

NDIS support item 04_599_0104_6_1 allows to claim an additional amount for the costs of running and maintaining a facility (Centre) through the relevant Centre Capital Cost support item when a support item (“the primary support”) in the Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation Support Category is delivered in the facility infrastructure developments enhancing NDIS participants' service accessibility.

If the primary support is being delivered to a group of participants, then the provider can claim up to price limit of the relevant Centre Capital Cost support item in respect of each of the participants for each hour of the support.

When a support is delivered partially in a Centre and partially in the Community, and the Centre is available at all times during the support if required, then providers can claim up to the price limit for the relevant Centre Capital Cost support item for the entire period of the support.

Service Details:

The Centre Capital Cost support item is a strategic funding allocation used to enhance disability support infrastructure. Specifically designed for aiding organisations and service providers, this item contributes to the development or upgrade of specialised disability accommodation and related facilities. It’s intended to improve access and quality of services for participants, ensuring that buildings are safe, accessible, and well-equipped to meet diverse needs.

Participant Outcomes:

Through the Centre Capital Cost investment, participants can expect an elevated standard of support services. This may include better physical access to buildings, the inclusion of adaptive technology, or modernised amenities that cater for specific disabilities. These enhancements are pivotal in promoting independence, community participation, and overall life quality for NDIS participants.

Impact Statement:

Investment in infrastructure through the Centre Capital Cost ensures long-term, sustainable support solutions for NDIS participants.

Cancellation

Providers can only claim from a participant’s plan for a Short Notice Cancellation of the delivery of a support item to the participant if all of the following conditions are met:

  • The NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits indicates that providers can claim for Short Notice Cancellations in respect of that support item; and
  • The proposed charges for the activities comply with the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits; and
  • The provider has the agreement of the participant in advance (that is, the service agreement between the participant and provider should specify that Short Notice Cancellations can be
    claimed); and
  • The provider was not able to find alternative billable work for the relevant worker and are required to pay the worker for the time that would have been spent providing the support.

Claims for a short notice cancellation should be made using the same support item as would have been used if the support had been delivered, using the “Cancellation” option in the myplace portal.

There is no hard limit on the number of short notice cancellations (or no shows) for which a provider can claim in respect of a participant. However, providers have a duty of care to their participants and if a participant has an unusual number of cancellations, then the provider should seek to understand why they are occurring.

The NDIA will monitor claims for cancellations and may contact providers who have a participant with an unusual number of cancellations.
