What is Plan Management?
Plan Management supports you in managing your NDIS funds. Our Plan Management team handles the day-to-day administration that comes with an NDIS plan, such as processing invoices and keeping track of your fund balance.
How much does Plan Management cost?
Plan Management is available to all participants, and the cost is covered by the NDIS - you just have to ask for it.
What are the benefits of Plan Management?
Plan Managers deal with all the tricky paperwork and administrative tasks related to your plan - like keeping track of your spending, maintaining accurate financial records, handling claims with the NDIS and making sure your providers get paid, tracking your spending and keeping a note of all your paperwork. They can even help you with a list of service providers in your area.
That means you can focus on the more important stuff, like realising the goals in your plan.
How do I sign up for Plan Management?
Go to the Contact Us Page and you can contact Kera's Plan Management. A service agreement will be drawn up and if you agree with the service agreement sign it and send it back and you can start using your NDIS funding straight away.
How do I find service providers?
Ask your support Coordinator for advice. Also Contact Us and we can point you in the right direction or even know of a service provider that you are looking for in your area. There is the provider finder on your NDIS portal or you can go to the NDIS webpage and check the list of registered service providers in your area at www.ndis.gov.au. and there is a lot of information about how to find a provider. Also there are some great websites that have a database of providers such as https://clickability.com.au/ . You can also find service providers in your local area by contacting your local NDIS office and calling the NDIS helpline on 1800 800 110.
What is the difference between unregistered and registered providers?
The NDIS asks service providers to register with them. However, not all providers choose to register. The main difference between unregistered and registered providers is that only registered providers can claim their invoices with the NDIS directly. Also Registered providers go through a very thorough NDIS Audit Process that is completed every 1 - 3 years. Using a Plan Manager allows you to access an unregistered provider easily.
