What is plan management?

A plan manager looks after the money side of your NDIS plan. They pay your providers' invoices, keep track of your budget and send you regular statements.

Being plan-managed gives you more choice. You can use registered and unregistered providers, without having to do the paperwork yourself.

Plan management is funded separately in your NDIS plan, so it doesn't reduce the money you have for your supports.

Good to know: Plan management doesn't come out of your support budget. It's funded separately, if you choose it.

What we can help with

  • Paying your providers' invoices
  • Tracking how much funding you have left
  • Monthly statements
  • Using both registered and unregistered providers

Common questions about plan management

How is plan management different from self-managing?

If you self-manage, you pay providers and claim from the NDIA yourself. A plan manager does this for you.

Does plan management cost me anything?

No. It's funded separately in your plan if you choose it.

Can I use unregistered providers?

Yes. Plan-managed participants can use both registered and unregistered providers.
