Price limit

A price limit is a ceiling published for a support item, not a fixed price the agency pays automatically. It sets the most a provider can charge when a participant’s funding is plan-managed or agency-managed.

Self-managed participants are not bound by published price limits in the same way, and can agree a different price directly with a provider.

Price limits are set out in the Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits document and reviewed on a schedule, so the current version always carries an effective date.
