NDIS Funding
As an NDIS provider of disability support services, we are here to help you achieve your goals and live as independently as possible. We understand it can be difficult to know what supports you need, or what you are eligible for with your NDIS funding. To help you get started,
please refer to the steps below:
The NDIS Application Process
Step 1: Check Your Eligibility
Visit the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) website at www.ndis.gov.au or call 1800 800 110 to determine your eligibility for the NDIS
Step 2: Get Assessed by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA)
As part of applying for NDIS funding, you will undergo assessments to confirm your needs and eligibility.
You must complete an NDIS Access Request Form, from the NDIS website or your local NDIS office. This form requires detailed information about your disability and how it impacts your daily life, supported by documentation as evidence of your disability.
Your regular health professionals, such as your general practitioner or occupational therapist, can assist you in providing this necessary evidence.
Step 3: NDIA application review and approval
- The NDIA will then review your application once you have submitted it.
- Once your NDIS application is approved by the NDIA, the process of allocating funding begins, ensuring that the support provided is both reasonable and necessary, and customised to meet your individual needs and goals.
- Once your plan is approved, you will be allocated funding based on what is considered reasonable and necessary to achieve your goals.
Step 4: Choose Your Plan Management:
The NDIS allows you to manage your plan and budget in several ways:
You may choose one of the following methods:
1.Self Managed – You have direct control to manage your own plan and budget yourself.
2.Plan Managed – The NDIA will include funding in your plan to cover a Plan Manager like St George In-Home Care, who will coordinate, manage your NDIS funding and support services.
3.NDIA Managed – The NDIA manages your payments to your providers on your behalf, making sure you receive the support and services you need.
Step 5: Start Receiving Our Support!
Once you have been approved by NDIA to access NDIS funding for your support, you are ready to transition to our support services.
