About Physiotherapy in the NDIS pricing schedule
Physiotherapy is a section of Appendix 4 – Therapy and Professional Supports in Part 2 of the NDIS pricing schedule 2026-27. Its items are funded from the Assistance with Daily Life (includes SIL) (01, Core), Finding and Keeping a Job (10, Capacity Building) and Improved Daily Living Skills (15, Capacity Building) support categoriesof a participant's plan.
Cancellations, non-face-to-face work, provider travel, NDIA-requested reports and telehealth have their own claim-type item numbers in 2026–27. Use those rather than the parent item when the support isn't a face-to-face service.
For time-of-day items, the NDIS shift cost estimator shows which line items a shift falls into. To see every price change across the schedule, use NDIS price changes 2026–27.
