What is the role of a NDIS Plan Manager and why should I consider Plan Management in my NDIS Plan?

It is important to consider the way you choose to manage your NDIS plan as it can impact on many of the elements of your NDIS budget, such as the type of items you can buy and the services you are able to use.

Some areas you should consider are:

  • Do you want to have choice and control over the providers you use

  • Be able to use NDIS-registered and non-registered providers

  • Negotiate pricing with your providers ie paying less than the NDIS price guide allows you to potentially get more out of your allocated funds

More on NDIS Plan Management

Does it cost me anything?

No, plan management doesn’t cost you anything out of your funding. The NDIS includes separate funding in your plan to pay for a plan manager.

Choose your own providers.

You have the choice to use any provider registered or not registered giving you more flexibility and control over the providers you choose.

Invoices are approved on time.

All your NDIS approved invoices will be processed by your Plan Manager so you don’t have to worry about tracking what has been processed.

Why choose Plan Management?

Plan Management is suited to participants and carers who do not want the stress of managing their own NDIS funding but want transparency and flexibility.

We are grateful to everyone at Plan Manage Assist for supporting us with all enquiries related invoices and payments for NDIS. Specially Kathleen and her partner are very helpful and always respond to our enquiries swiftly. We really like their work ethics and approach when dealing with our matter. Thank you for all your support PMA. Best regards.

Vilas and Eva, Parents

Great to hear from you. We are all well thank you, hope you’re keeping well too. Category Breakdown – this new format looks great – I like that all budget data can be viewed on one page, as you said, it’s not dissimilar to the current page format, this is a nice updated version. Dial Graph – this looks great too and easy to read. Generally speaking it’s not as informative as the category breakdown )all budget information on one page).

Trish, Carer

I am really happy with Plan Manage Assist. Their communication has been great. They notify me when funding is close to depletion, or if there are any issues with my participant’s plan. I have not experienced this type of communication with any other plan manager provider. They have also been super helpful with answering my questions when calling or emailing. The support coordination portal is also great, as it is easy to navigate and read.

Emilia, Breakthru

Hello, thank you so much. What a great thing to do. Have to say this does not happen with other plan managers I work with.

Annette O - Support Coordinator, Nexus Support Services

I changed from Self Managed to Plan Manage Assist some two years ago. PMA allows me to manage the accounts, check the invoices, and keep on top of the finances. At the end of the two-year NDIS plan it is relatively simple to formulate a new budget for the next two years. I have no hesitation in recommending Plan Manage Assist for the task.
