Carpe Diem and the NDIS
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a Federal Government funding scheme to support people with disability, their families and carers. People with disability will receive funding for reasonable and necessary supports based on their individual needs and aspirations.
People with disability will be able to choose the types of supports they receive, when and where they are accessed, and which disability service providers they will use to deliver the supports.
TTP - Temporary Transformation Payment
From 1 July 2019 the NDIA introduced the Temporary Transformation Payment (TTP) which is a conditional loading to assist service providers as they continue to transition to working under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
TTP is set at 7.5% of the support cost and will be reduced by 1.5% each year.
To access TTP pricing service providers must:
-
Be a registered NDIS provider
-
Publish their service prices
-
List their business contact details in the NDIA Provider Finder
-
Participate annually in an NDIA-approved market benchmarking survey
Carpe Diem is compliant with the NDIA’s eligibility terms to use TTP prices where applicable.
How does TTP pricing affect NDIS participants?
All NDIS plans are built to reflect and support your reasonable and necessary needs.
NDIS plans in place before 1 July 2019 had funding added to cover TTP prices for the remainder of the plan.
NDIS plans created after 1 July 2019 will not include funding specifically for TTP but your core budget is flexible and should accommodate TTP pricing.
As of 1 July 2019 Carpe Diem will automatically apply TTP pricing for all applicable community participation and centre-based activities when accessing services under the NDIS.
To support your NDIS plan utilisation and budget you should inform your LAC or Planner that your provider charges TTP pricing to ensure your NDIS plan has sufficient funding.

NDIS Price List
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) imposes price controls on some support services by setting the prices that registered providers can charge for those services.
As a registered NDIS provider, Carpe Diem charges the NDIS prices for support services. Carpe Diem is also compliant with the NDIA’s eligibility terms to use the Temporary Transformation Payment (TTP) where applicable.
