The NDIS and the health system split the bill and it helps to know which is which:

• The NDIS funds disability-related supports: therapies, early intervention and support workers to help you get to appointments), where they're reasonable and necessary for your disability.
• The health system (Medicare, hospitals, private health) covers medical treatment: doctor's visits, medicines, surgery and treatment for illness or injury.

The line can occasionally feel blurry. For example, disability-related health supports (like continence or wound care linked to your disability) can be NDIS-funded. If you're not sure which side of the line something falls on, email us at hello@providerchoice.com.au and we'll help you work it out.
