You will have independent access to NDIS registered and unregistered service providers around the country, with no conflict of interest, so you can make an informed choice about who supports you.

Towards the end of your current plan, you’ll be headed toward plan review. This is a great time to think about your plan and whether the budgets have been working in your favour, so that you enter your plan review equipped with all the necessary information to help yourself achieve your future goals.

At your Plan Meeting or Plan Review, you’ll be asked what your choice is for managing your NDIS funding. Some participants opt for a combination of these options, especially as they become more familiar with the NDIS.

A stated item indicates a specific support or service with its own allocation in your NDIS plan. When you see a support with the description “stated supports,” it means that this support has funding that cannot be transferred or used for any other purpose other than the specified item.

After your planning meeting, you’ll be issued your NDIS plan based on what was discussed. The plan will include important information that elaborates on who you are, what support systems you currently have, and what you’re trying to achieve through the help of the NDIS, together with information on what funding is available to you.

We previously talked about the perils overspending may pose to your NDIS plan, but what many may not understand is that underspending can also present potential problems down the line.

Now that you have your NDIS funding, it’s time to spend and track it. 

In the Australian Government’s effort to provide everyone with access to safe and effective vaccines against COVID-19, an initial roll-out of vaccinations began in late February. 

Goals are the things you want to achieve with support from the NDIS and other supports and services. Setting goals will help you stay focused. Achieving short-term goals creates milestones towards your long-term goals, which may require more planning and time to accomplish. 

With current COVID restrictions forcing organisations and support providers to postpone programs and events, your plans for outings and activities may have to be put on hold. Thankfully, there are many ways you can still have fun, enriching experiences within the four walls of your home.

As NDIS plan managers, our goal at Blitzit is to make life on the NDIS easier for you. We streamline the process of setting up, managing and tracking your NDIS plan so you can be free from the hassles of navigating the NDIS — which any participant knows can be a lot to take in.

The beauty of your NDIS plan is that it is made especially for you. Depending on your unique situation and the supports you’re already receiving, as an NDIS participant, you can get funded supports ranging from transport to therapies to employment assistance to home modifications.
