The short answer
The 96-page schedule contains 612 priced item entries in 57 tables. Open the appropriate table below to see all its codes, what the service means, who can deliver it, when to use it and national, remote and very remote maximum prices. Our separate claiming guides explain travel, cancellations, evening and night rates, reports and other extras.
Start with the support delivered
Match the actual activity to the correct service family before choosing a price. A similar hourly rate does not mean that a professional therapy code, support worker code and group item are interchangeable. For each service, confirm participant funding and plan restrictions, the worker's credentials, actual time or units, the service location and the operative claim type.
