What is NDIS plan management?


As an NDIS participant, you have complete choice and control over how your funding is managed. Your funds are allocated to you by the NDIS based on your individual circumstances for supports and services you require. This funding works towards achieving the goals in your plan.

You ultimately have three main options for the management of your NDIS funding. You can choose for your budget to be agency managed by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA), you can manage it yourself (self-managed), or you can choose to work with a registered, independent NDIS Plan Manager, such as Disability Plan Services. We provide you with a detailed comparison of these options below.

Working with Disability Plan Services as your NDIS Plan Management provider will allow you to maintain control of your support services without the difficult administration and record keeping.

If you are new to the NDIS or are unfamiliar with what services and supports are available to you in your community, Disability Plan Services helps to facilitate the best supports for you and provide you with advice that suits your individual needs and goals.

Our team are experienced NDIS Plan Managers and know how to make the most of your funding.

Not only that but we also look after the payment of all service providers on your behalf, liaise directly with the NDIS, keep track of your spending, provide recommendations for using your budget and keep you informed of your spending with regular updates in languages you can understand.

Understanding your options


Plan Management is required to keep track of your NDIS funding. You have the option to self-manage your plan which means you are required to keep track of all receipts, submit online forms in the NDIS portal to pay service providers and track your budget.

Another option is choosing for the NDIA to manage your plan for you. This restricts you to choosing only registered providers which aren’t always the most cost-effective or preferred way of utilising your funding.

Choosing Disability Plan Services to manage your plan is the best of both options as it allows you to remain in control of who you work with but also means you don’t have to worry about the paperwork.

At Disability Plan Services, we are flexible to suit your schedule, we take the time to understand you and know the best way to manage your NDIS funding.

This is how the different NDIS plan management options work:
