What plan management options are there?

How you manage your NDIS plan is completely up to you and you can mix and match.

Your options are:

  • Self-management - you (or a nominee) pay providers and manage the records yourself. Maximum flexibility, most admin.
  • Plan management - a plan manager like Provider Choice pays your providers and tracks your budget for you. You keep the same provider choice as self-management, without the paperwork. The NDIA funds this separately, so it costs you nothing.
  • Agency management (NDIA-managed) - the NDIA pays your providers directly. Least admin, but you can only use NDIS-registered providers.
  • A combination - for example, self-managing some supports and plan-managing the rest.

You can nominate a plan manager at your planning meeting, or any time after your plan is approved.
