How Much Do NDIS Providers Get Paid Per Month?

One of the most common questions we hear from new providers and workers is: How much do NDIS providers earn per month, and how do NDIS payments actually work?
The amount providers receive depends on the types of supports delivered, the NDIS pricing structure, and how payments are managed for each client.
How NDIS Work
NDIS providers are paid based on the NDIS Price Guide (also called the Support Catalogue). Rates vary depending on:
- Type of service (e.g., daily living, community access, therapy).
- Location and day/time (weekday, evening, weekend).
- Level of participant need and support ratio
