Travel – Labour Costs

Practitioner’s time for travel to and from appointments outside of the clinic will be charged at your practitioner’s hourly rate for supports to the same funding line being used for therapy. Travel costs for time are capped at 30 mins each way in metropolitan and larger rural and regional centres (MMM1-3 areas) and 60 mins each way in smaller rural and remote areas (MMM4-5 areas). Travel costs for labour will be apportioned between clients where a worker is travelling to provide services to more than one client in a ‘region’. 

Travel – Non-Labour Costs

Travel to locations outside of the clinic will also incur a non-labour travel charge of $0.99 per km. This may be charged both to and from your appointment. The non-labour travel charge is in addition to the labour travel charge of up to 30 minutes each way. Non-labour travel costs will be apportioned between clients where a worker is travelling to provide services to more than one client in a ‘region’.

Costs for non-labour travel will be charged to the applicable funding lines as set out in the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits.
