The 2024–25 Budget estimates that the total cost of the NDIS, including both Commonwealth and state contributions, will be $44.3 billion in the 2023–24 financial year

This is absurd, over $66,000 per year on average is spent for each NDIS recipient

The cost of some medications is mental. Can easily rack that bill up with things like biologics. Tho with 66k being the average there must be some monster bills at the high end...
