National Disability Insurance Scheme provider (NDIS)
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides financial support for people living with a disability. It’s a whole-of-life approach tailored to each person’s needs and goals. Under the previous Commonwealth funding model, community organisations received disability support funding from the government and decided how it would be used. Now, with the NDIS reform, funding is allocated to individuals giving more choice and control over how their funding is spent.
As an approved NDIS Provider, Pathways Support Services can assist clients to understand what they are or may be eligible to receive under the National Disability Insurance Scheme.
Allocated NDIS funding depends on the need of the individual participant. The NDIS will fund supports that are reasonable and necessary. They will assess individuals looking for assistance under the following circumstances:
- The support offered has to relate to the disability of the participant
- Funding does not cover costs unrelated to the disability support needs
- Support must be a good value for money
- Support can only be given if it will benefit the participant
NDIS support will also consider the support offered by the participant’s family, home carers, community and their wider network.
