Introduction

...

Pricelists are accessed via the Administration > 5. Pricelist sub menu. Pricelist records reflect both the lists that are delivered and maintained by Brevity, which catalogue the service rates as per the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits document (previously known as the NDIS Price Guide), and lists that have been created and maintained by the business. For example, a custom pricelist with service rates that vary from what is in the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits document.

Editing a Pricelist

The effective dates and charge rates for the service types in a custom Pricelist may be updated.

Updates to the standard NDIS price lists that are delivered by Brevity are limited to effective end dates (in the absence of a new pricelist) the exclusion/inclusion of service types and service rate variations. It is important to note that when working with service type rates within the standard pricelist that the rate never exceeds what is listed within the NDIS price guide(set rates to the maximum but adjustments to a lower rate can be applied if the business supports this, however in doing so will have an impact for all client services that the utilise that pricelist ~ service type).
