• Providers do not need to transition to the new group pricing methodology until 1 July 2022
• Transition to the new pricing regime can occur anytime from 1 July 2021

This welcome announcement follows a consistent program of engagement with Minister Reynolds' office, and the NDIA's pricing team over an extended period. We acknowledge the interest of Minister Reynolds and her staff, together with the Agency, in hearing our concerns on this issue.
