-
Funding from the federal government to assist those with ongoing disablement to access a range of services to support their quality of life.
The amount of funding varies depending on the individual’s needs. Determination of the amount of funding required is made by the NDIS. The NDIS will take a range of considerations into account including support letters from medical professionals and therapists, participant completed assessment tools and past history of disablements. After the application for NDIS is completed, a package will be created to support the individual. This package will include several broad categories:
Core funding: Used to assist with everyday activities.
Capacity building: Used for building capacity (such as improving independence and skills) to achieve your goals.
Capital supports budget: Used for attaining assistive technology (any technology needed to assist you in your day-to-day life)
-
Requirements to apply for the NDIS include:
Aged below 65 years old.
Australian citizen, permanent resident, or Protected Special Category Visa holder?
Live in Australia.
Have a disability caused by a permanent impairment?
Need disability-specific supports to complete daily life activities?
-
NDIS participants have the choice and control to decide how they use their plan.
There are 2 important parts to this:
Firstly: the participant can seek help with the management and co-ordination of their package. They can self-manage the coordination of their supports, or they can be assisted by a Support Coordinator. The vast majority of NDIS participants utilise Support Coordinators as finding supports can often be difficult.
Secondly: the participant needs to decide about how to manage the finances of the NDIS package.
They can be:
Self-Managed - they manage it themselves entirely.
Plan Managed - in this instance they utilise a Plan Manager to assist them with invoices and their funding.
NDIA Managed - in this instance the NDIS manages the finances of the plan on behalf of the participant.
BHT views the Support Coordinators or Plan Managers as part of your team and works collaboratively to achieve your goals.
