What is the MMM Model? 

The NDIS uses the Modified Monash Model / MMM 2023 (from 31 Oct 2025) to determine whether a location is a city, rural, remote or very remote. 

The model measures remoteness and population size on a scale of Modified Monash (MM) category MM 1 - MM 7.

MM 1 is a major city and MM 7 is very remote.

This influences the prices charged by a provider and paid by a participant in a specified location.

See below for an excerpt from the NDIS Support Catalogue that shows 3 prices for 1 single support.

3 pricing levels

How does the NDIS use the MMM Model?

Under the NDIS, the location of a service affects its cost: the more remote the service delivery area, the more expensive it is. 

The NDIS currently has 3 levels of pricing for each support:

  • MMM 1 - 5 is classified as National Non Remote and uses the standard (lowest) NDIS price rate.
  • MMM 6 is classed as National Remote and are generally 40% higher.
  • MMM 7 is classed as National Very Remote and are generally 50% higher.

Delivery of Online Services

The cost of a service delivered online is based on the location of the Service Provider who is delivering the service.

So, even if the participant is located in a remote area (MMM6 or 7), if the provider is located in a metro area (MMM1-5), regular rates apply.
