The NDIS Edition 2016
What plan suits me?
For your first NDIS plan you can choose from a number of different options to suit your lifestyle.
1. Self-Managed
If you choose the Self-Managed option, you will have complete responsibility for sourcing and
arranging your supports, making payments to providers, managing your budget, and keeping
records of all your plan purchases and providing these to the NDIA as required.
2. Registered Plan Management Provider
With this option, you entrust your funds to a single Registered Plan Management Provider.
The provider will then work alongside you to ensure execution of your personalised plan.
You can change your provider at any time.
3. National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA)
You can choose to have the NDIA manage the funding for your supports in your plan. Under this option,
you organise which supports you want and choose the service providers you want. The NDIA will then help
connect you to the providers and pay them directly once you have received your supports.
4. A combination of the above options
A combination of the above options allows you to manage some aspects of your plan.
