Can I use my plan to buy ready-made meals?
Food is one of life’s essentials but when it comes to the NDIS, knowing what’s covered and what’s not in relation to meal preparation and delivery can be hard to wrap your head around.
To make things easier, we cooked up this guide to help you understand how these supports work and what options might be available in your NDIS Plan.
Claiming NDIS‑funded travel for providers.
As a provider, it’s important to understand how travel costs work in a participant’s NDIS Plan.
Travel can be claimed through the NDIS when certain conditions are met and there’s a clear agreement with the participant. Using the right line items and invoicing correctly can help reduce the risk of delays or rejected claims.
Is ADHD and NDIS covered by the NDIS?
On its own, ADHD is not usually covered by the NDIS. That’s because it can be hard to meet the NDIS eligibility criteria for permanent and significant disability based on ADHD alone.
We explore when you might be eligible for the NDIS if you have ADHD and what types of supports may be available.
What are informal supports and why are they important?
Parents, family members, teachers and members of the community often play an important role in supporting people with disability. The NDIS recognises the role these ‘informal supports’ play and how they complement formal, paid supports. But what exactly are informal supports and what does the NDIS consider when creating your plan?
