What the July 2025 NDIS Pricing Changes Mean for Your Support Services
Published: July 29, 2025 | By Hitaji Services Team
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) continues to evolve to better serve participants across Australia. With significant pricing changes taking effect from July 1, 2025, many NDIS participants are wondering what these updates mean for their support services and overall experience.
At Hitaji Services, we believe in keeping our clients informed about changes that directly impact their care. Here's everything you need to know about the latest NDIS pricing structure and how it affects your support services.
Understanding the New Pricing Framework
The July 2025 pricing changes represent a major shift in how NDIS services are structured and delivered. The new framework is designed to ensure NDIS participants are charged fairly and in line with what other Australians pay for similar services. This means greater transparency, consistency, and value for money across all support categories.
For participants using in-home support, transport assistance, and community engagement services like those offered by Hitaji Services, these changes bring several key benefits:
Enhanced Price Transparency: All NDIS providers must now clearly outline their pricing structure, making it easier for you to understand exactly what you're paying for and why.
Standardized Quality Standards: The new pricing model ties costs directly to quality outcomes, ensuring you receive better value for your NDIS funding.
Improved Service Consistency: Pricing standardization means you can expect consistent service quality regardless of which provider you choose within your local area.
The 3.95% Pay Rise: What It Means for Your Care Quality
One of the most significant aspects of the July 2025 changes is the 3.95% pay rise for disability support workers. This increase isn't just a number on paper – it directly translates to improved service quality for NDIS participants.
Higher wages help attract and retain experienced, qualified support workers who are passionate about disability support. At Hitaji Services, we've already seen how competitive compensation leads to:
Lower staff turnover, meaning you're more likely to work with the same support workers long-term
Increased job satisfaction among our team, which translates to more engaged, enthusiastic support
Enhanced training opportunities as we can invest more in professional development
Better recruitment of highly skilled workers who bring specialized expertise to your support
This wage increase is funded through the new pricing structure, so while you might see slight adjustments in service costs, you're receiving significantly enhanced value through improved care quality and consistency.
