NDIS Fees and Funding
Our NDIS session fees are charged at the hourly rate of $193.99 as per the current NDIS Price Guide. However, due to the NDIS price cap for therapeutic supports being frozen for over 7 years and not keeping in line with inflation, businesses have had to adjust the way they offer NDIS services due to the significant behind-the-scenes work such as session preparation, clinical analysis, record keeping and administrative tasks related to participants’ NDIS plans. Therefore, our standard appointments operate on an 80 minute basis.
This includes:
- 50 minutes face-to-face therapy (direct services)
- 15 minutes for session planning and resource preparation, including preparing and personalising therapy materials (indirect services)
- 15 minutes for clinical analysis, parent capacity building, and record keeping (indirect services)
This means the cost of the 80 minute service is $258.59.
All other services, such as report writing or stakeholder meetings/consultations are charged at the hourly rate for the amount of time used.
