National Disability Insurance Scheme
About NDIS
What is the NDIS?
There are around 4.3 million Australians who have a disability. Within the next five years, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) will provide $22 billion in funding a year to an estimated 500,000 Australians aged under 65, who have permanent and significant disability. For many people, it will be the first time they receive the disability support they need.
The NDIS can provide all people with disability with information and connections to services in their communities such as doctors, sporting clubs, support groups, libraries and schools, as well as information about what support is provided by each state and territory government.
What does it mean?
01
National
The NDIS is being introduced progressively across all states and territories.
02
Disability
The NDIS provides support to eligible people with intellectual, physical, sensory, cognitive and psychosocial disability. Early intervention supports can also be provided for eligible people with disability or children with developmental delay.
03
Insurance
The NDIS gives all Australians peace of mind if they, their child or loved one is born with or acquires a permanent and significant disability, they will get the support they need.
04
Scheme
The NDIS is not a welfare system. The NDIS is designed to help people get the support they need so their skills and independence improve over time.
Who can access it?
Broadly, you may be eligible if you:
are under 65 when applying,
live in Australia and are a citizen, PR, or Protected SCV holder, and
have a permanent and significant disability affecting daily life (or meet early-intervention criteria).
For official guidance, visit the NDIS or speak with your GP/support coordinator.
How we work with your NDIS plan
We design supports around your goals, routines and preferences. You choose times, locations, and (where possible) your preferred worker. We keep communication simple, provide clear notes, and review progress with you.
Funding types we work with
Self-managed: You pay providers directly and claim back from NDIS. Maximum flexibility.
Plan-managed: A plan manager pays invoices for you. Registered or unregistered providers may be used.
NDIA-managed (Agency-managed): Invoices are paid via the NDIS portal and must be from registered providers.
Tell us how your plan is managed and we’ll align billing accordingly.
