Youngcare acknowledges recent updates to the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits for 2025–26, released by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA), which will take effect from 1 July 2025. These changes include adjustments to pricing for a range of services, including Allied Health and Support Coordination.
There is growing concern across the sector that the level of price increases may not be sufficient to meet the rising costs of delivering services. Industry bodies, including the Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA), have raised the potential risk of reduced service availability and workforce sustainability, which could impact participant choice and access to essential supports.
Youngcare encourages all NDIS participants, families, and providers to review the updated pricing arrangements and engage in conversations about how these changes may affect service delivery and continuity of care.
