How Does NDIS Funding Work?
The world of NDIS funding can seem complicated, but it’s not that difficult once you understand the process. Even if you feel confused now, Home Caring is here to support you at every step of your journey.
The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has a statutory role in implementing the NDIS. It assesses cases and allocates funding according to medical situation, income, and assets.
During this process, the NDIA will determine your support entitlement. Core supports include everything related to daily living expenses related to your disability, while capacity building funds anything that might assist your skills and independence. You may also receive capital support: funding for home modifications and wheelchair access.
Once you receive approval to become a participant in the scheme, you can start searching for NDIS-registered providers in South Australia. As a client, you can choose whoever you believe will provide the best service. If you aren’t happy with an agency, you can switch to another.
Who Is Eligible For NDIS?
The NDIA institutes various eligibility requirements for anyone seeking NDIS funding. To qualify, you must:
- Be under 65 (if you are over this age, you may qualify for a My Aged Care Home Care Package).
- Have a disability that requires at-home support to enable you to live independently.
- Be an Australian citizen or permanent resident in the country.
Call our team if you would like more information on whether you qualify. Home Caring can help you learn if you match the criteria or whether other types of funding are available for your circumstances.
