How do I get support Coordination in my NDIS Plan?

NDIS funding is based on what is deemed ‘reasonable and necessary’ to help participants achieve their goals and enhance their lives. NDIS provides this funding in addition to the help one might receive from family, friends, and other community and government aids.

How your support coordination can help in your NDIS plan

  • Identify your plan and what is reasonable and necessary for your needs and goals. Work with you to ensure you receive the appropriate level of support.
  • Help navigate the funding process and advise on available options.
  • The Capacity Building budget is incorporated with support coordination, which will be incorporated where reasonable and necessary. This means that NDIS funding can cover the cost of support coordination services under the plan.

How can you get support coordination in your NDIS Plan?

The NDIS will determine whether support coordination is ‘reasonable and necessary’ based on the individual needs and circumstances of the participant with disabilities.

If necessary, the participant can work with their support coordinator to determine how to use their funding to ensure they receive the most beneficial support coordination services. NDIS always provides a fixed amount for a support coordinator to help you use your plan effectively.

Participants need a support coordinator if they

  • Do not have any informal support, such as family, friends, or other associates, who can assist them in getting the support coordination included in their plan.
  • A new participant in the NDIS scheme who is experiencing transition or any significant change in their lives
  • Are likely to develop new or existing skills and confidence to navigate their NDIS scheme in future with some initial assistance from the support coordinator

The capacity-building budget will include your support coordination, as the funding will be based on the ‘reasonable and necessary’ need to pursue your goals. A fixed amount will be allocated for a support coordinator for your plan. One can also purchase a particular level of support coordination, as there is a detailed description of the level of support coordination funded in your scheme.
