Government Raises Disability Provider Fees 2.1% for August

The SND tied the new rates to July's consumer-price variation, fixed numeric values for service categories and kept a 20% Patagonia surcharge to reflect higher regional costs.

Overview

  • The Secretaría Nacional de Discapacidad formalized the increase in Resolución 2775/2026 published Monday, August 24, raising Nomenclador reimbursements by 2.10% for prestaciones corresponding to August.
  • The adjustment is applied uniformly to all services in the Sistema de Prestaciones Básicas and replaces July's values set by Resolución 2227/2026, which had applied a 1.9% raise.
  • The resolution fixes new numeric aranceles for Categories A, B and C — for example a double-shift Day Center moved to $1,101,566.06 — and reconfirms a 20% additional surcharge for prestaciones delivered in Patagonian provinces.
  • The change alters the amounts that providers, institutions and transporters can bill and is not a direct cash increase for beneficiaries; health funds (obras sociales) and the State are the payers who must absorb the higher reimbursements.
  • The update rests on the Directorio's Acta Nº 432 and legal bases in Law 27.793 and Decree 84/2026, and comes against ongoing tensions over delayed payments to prestadores after a May federal court order required Incluir Salud and PAMI to normalize payments.
