How To Make The Most Of Your Core Supports Funding
The scheme and the associated funding are two different things, yet both can be equally complexing. It’s about the ‘what’ and the ‘how’.

It’s natural to feel overwhelmed with navigating the National Disability Insurance Scheme as there is a lot of jargon relating to the NDIS.
You’ve also made the decision to have your NDIS Funds managed by a registered NDIS Plan Management team – even better!
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) is responsible for setting price limits for many of the supports that NDIS providers deliver.
Depending on how your NDIS Plan is managed, depends on how you are able to choose and pay for your NDIS Supports.
As good as a story may be, when it comes to the NDIS, the narrative should be based on the information which is factual and evidence-based.
As NDIS Plan Managers we are often asked by our National Disability Insurance Scheme clients “can I use my funds for…?”
Initially, in force on 29 May 2013, the NDIS has been revised and amended 15 times over the past nine years, with the current version coming into force on 29 October 2021.
Though not necessary, the NDIA recommend having a written service agreement in place for the engagement and delivery of supports under an NDIS Participant’s NDIS Plan.
How you find something that you’re after and the way that you go about finding it is by your preference and how you feel most comfortable.
Are you self-managing your NDIS Plan? Did you know that you can use a registered NDIS Plan Manager too, and get the best of both worlds?
What would you do, or want the ones closest to you, to do if you found yourself living with a disability? You would seek help.
