Why take this course?

It’s the most awaited time of the year. No, not Christmas – the NDIA will soon release the 2024 Pricing Arrangements and Pricing Limits (PAPL) document. And if previous years are anything to go by, the NDIA will drop the PAPL and run – with little explanation, analysis or assistance for providers who need to roll out any changes. Ah, the joy. 

This 60 minute workshop will guide you through the changes in the 2024 PAPL and give you the confidence to adapt. We’re expecting a big year: we’ve heard that the NDIA will be making some particularly big changes to reflect the larger reforms that come with the rollout of PACE. So the structure of several support items might be changing (and you’re gonna wanna know about it). Regardless of whether these changes will affect you now or later – being across them will set you up for success, flexibility and compliance. 

What you’ll gain

In 60 action-packed minutes, we’ll go through:

Changes from the 2024 PAPL Update. 

  • We don’t know what these will be for sure yet, buuut we have an inkling:
    Structural changes, including an overview of the whole PAPL

  • Removal of Temporary Transformation Payment (TTP) and what it means for price caps and item numbers (not to mention things like schedules of support and service agreements)

  • Possible changes to item numbers in Core with PACE

Changes that have happened over the past 6 months.

  • Funding flexibility rule changes (with PACE)

  • New Recurring Transport Support Type

  • New rules for Short Term Accommodation (STA) and Medium Term Accommodation (MTA)

  • Changes to Assistive Technology (AT) Repair and Maintenance


Who’s it for?

  • Frontline Leaders

  • Allied Health Professionals

  • Support Coordinators

  • Managers and Leaders

Rob Woolley

Our very own Woolly Mammoth, pulls up last in the alphabetical rankings but always gets a place on the DSC podium for combining curiosity with smarts. He knows so much about the NDIS it is scary. Rob lives a personal commitment to sharing his knowledge with an endgame of people with disability in control. Combining lived experience of the early childhood intervention pathway with professional experience of the realities of provider life - he has consistently shown the inability to hold down a real job. His roles in the disability sector have covered direct support work, project management, business development, consulting, ILC-funded advocacy roles and owner-operator of a registered and then unregistered provider (but the thing he is best at is being a very present dad). If you want a consultant or trainer in your corner you will be looking high and low to do better than our Rob.
