The 2025-26 NDIS Price Guide has frozen or cut the prices of key supports, undervaluing the work of all providers, including plan managers, therapists, and support coordinators.

As a result, many providers are scrambling to stay afloat, shifting to telehealth-only services, reducing their service radius, de-regiserting from the NDIS or closing their doors entirely.

These changes will significantly impact all people on the NDIS and our entire Australian community. 

We’re calling for: 

• A pause on the 2025-26 pricing changes, before irreparable damage is done

• A genuine co-design process that includes people on the scheme, industry peak bodies, providers, and sector experts.

• A better system going forward one with safeguards in place so decisions like this can’t happen without transparency, accountability, and lived experience at the centre.

This is about more than this year’s Price Guide. It’s about building a system that values people, and doesn’t leave them out of the process.

Because every Australian deserves a fair go.
