First things first
What, who, why
NDIS participants are in control of who and what services they want, putting them at the centre of the decision-making process.
This empowers them to choose services that help achieve their goals in independence, community involvement, education, employment, and well-being.
Getting started
You are eligible for NDIS support if:
-
You are between the ages of 7 and 65
-
You live in Australia and have Australian residency
-
You have a permanent and significant disability
-
You use special equipment because of a permanent and significant disability
-
You require support to better daily activities
Available care
If you are eligible, you will be invited to develop your own personalised plan by the NDIA.
During this meeting, you will be able to assess the support and services you need based on your goals and what you want to achieve.
From there, your individual NDIS plan will be created along with the funding you will receive to make those goals a reality.

FAQ
Your top NDIS questions answered!
Who can access the NDIS?
The NDIS is for Australians under 65 with a permanent and significant disability affecting their ability to perform daily tasks. Your eligibility will be assessed based on your individual circumstances and how it impacts your functional capacity. The program aims to help individuals gain independence and participate more fully in life and the community.
How do I apply for the NDIS?
To apply, you must complete an Access Request Form and provide medical or other evidence about your disability. You can apply by calling NDIS 1800 800 110 or visiting the NDIS website. Gathering detailed information, including health records, and needs helps ensure the application process goes smoothly.
What does the NDIS cover?
The NDIS funds “reasonable and necessary” supports that assist daily living, such as personal care, assistive technology, therapies, and community participation. It doesn’t cover day-to-day costs like rent or groceries. Support is tailored to individual needs.
What do NDIS services costs?
The NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits outlines how support providers charge for services delivered to NDIS participants. The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) regulates pricing to ensure supports remain affordable, fair, and sustainable while providing value for money for participants and fostering growth in the provider market. See government pricing here.
What if I have problems with my NDIS plan?
If you’re unhappy with your plan or funding, you can request a review. If issues remain unresolved, the Administrative Review Tribunal can help. Advocacy services, like PWD Australia, can also support you in navigating these challenges.
What do NDIS workers do?
NDIS support workers play a crucial role in empowering individuals with disabilities to live their best lives and reach their full potential. The responsibilities of an NDIS support worker require a range of skills, including excellent communication, patience, empathy, and a strong commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of those they support.
The key responsibilities of an NDIS Support Worker include:
- Providing practical and emotional support to individuals with disabilities
- Assisting with daily activities such as personal care, meal preparation, and mobility
- Facilitating access to the community and promoting social inclusion
- Working with individuals to understand their needs and develop customized support plans
- Implementing support plans and monitoring progress towards achieving goals and aspirations
- Providing respite care for families and carers
- Collaborating with other support workers, healthcare professionals, and service providers
- Providing transport and accompaniment to appointments and activities
- Keeping accurate records and updating support plans as needed
- Encouraging individuals to take an active role in their support and promoting independence
- Ensuring participants are safe, and reporting any incidents that may occur.

Once you have your individualised NDIS plan, you will be able to work with service providers of your choosing to achieve your goals.
It’s a good idea to spend a bit of time researching who you might want to use for support. If you don’t know whom to contact, the NDIA will be able to provide you with a list of registered service providers in your area.
Service providers are professionals who deliver support and services ranging from physiotherapy to counselling to transport services.

Management options
How do I manage and review my NDIS Plan?
There are 3 ways to manage your plan:
- Self-managed – you manage your plan by yourself
- NDIA-managed – the NDIA manages your plan for you
- Plan-managed – a Plan Manager helps you manage part of your plan.
The NDIA reviews your NDIS Plan annually to ensure it's effective. Reflect on your achievements and future goals before the review. You can change service providers anytime if you're not satisfied.
