Everything You Need to Know About the NDIS Landscape!

What is NDIS?

NDIS or the National Disability Insurance Scheme is based on the National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013 (NDIS Act)  which came to effect in 2013. The main objective or purpose of NDIS is to provide people with disability- both permanent and significant support and services. In layman terms, NDIS is a scheme that helps people with disability obtain services according to the budget allocated to them by the government. This budget varies from person to person depending upon their disability and their need for reasonable and necessary supports

What Qualifies as Reasonable and Necessary Support?

Reasonable and necessary supports are the ones that are related to the participants’ disability and do not include their day-to-day activities that do not directly relate to their disability, for example- groceries, day-to-day costs not related to a person’s ability or something that can harm the participant or the people around. These should also represent a value for money and must help the participant with things like being more independent, supporting their goals and aspirations, helping them be an active part of the community or uplifting their mental and physical health and wellness.

Who is an NDIS Participant?

NDIS participants are people who are either born with a disability or acquire a significant or permanent disability. Permanent disability is likely to stay with the person throughout his/her life whereas a significant disability is one that has a major impact and hinders the participants’ ability to perform everyday activities. There is a set criterion defined by NDIS which defines that a permanent or a significant disability is one in which you either need support from another person, require special equipment for day-to-day activities, or require support to reduce and minimise your future risks and needs. There is, however, a broader criterion mentioned in the NDIS act of 2013. You can also ask your NDIS provider whether you qualify for funding or not.

Who are NDIS Service Providers?

NDIS service providers are responsible for providing funded services to participants. It could be a person, business or organisation. A participant can decide what they are after and find a right provider that checks their boxes. NDIS service providers can be registered or non-registered. Participants who are managed by the NDIA can only work with registered providers whereas participants that are self-managed or have a plan manager can work with both registered and non-registered providers.

How Does NDIS Work?

For Providers

NDIS providers are organisations that give or provide services to participants. An NDIS service provider will manage and provide various services to their participants. Participants can reach out to these service providers to arrange services for them. These providers then send their invoices to NDIS and get paid through them. NDIS service providers take off the load from participants as they do everything involved in arranging a service, enabling a participant to only get the service they require.

01
For Participants

Participants are the people who get funding from NDIA depending upon the level of care they require. These participants generally just require the service and can contact an NDIS provider or a plan manager for the same. An NDIS provider directly provides services to the participant depending on their requirement and funding. A plan manager plans for the participant and efficiently manage their funding to provide them ample services. Alternatively, the participant can self-manage their funding wherein they would require completing all steps of the process on their own.

02
For Support Workers

NDIA follows a set of compliance rules that every support worker must follow while providing care to a participant. These compliances also help the support worker become a registered provider of care. Support workers can work with NDIS providers or directly with the participants to provide care. They can have different levels of services and have different classification like a cleaner, finance, recovery coach, and more.
