Plan Management
Our plan management team assists participants to manage the funding in their NDIS plan.
This includes budget monitoring and processing of NDIS funded supports invoices on participants behalf. Plan management enables participants to access an increased choice of service providers.
What is Plan Management?
Plan Management is a service under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) which is designed to help participants effectively manage their NDIS funding and supports. Plan Management is an option that allows participants to choose to have a registered Plan Manager assist them in managing their NDIS budget and payments. A Plan Manager can help with things like paying invoices for services, keeping track of budget and making sure that funds are being used correctly.
​
Plan Management gives participants the freedom to choose their own providers and services, without the added stress of handling finances and paperwork. A Plan Manager acts as a middleman between the participant, service providers, and the NDIA (National Disability Insurance Agency), to make sure that payments are made on time and in line with the participant's NDIS plan.
Plan Management at ARC
Each participant that is Plan Managed by ARC is assigned a Coordinator who will be the sole point of contact.
We provide a person-centered approach, where the support provided is individualised according to the interests and needs of that person. Plan Management is a collaborative process between you, your Plan Manager, support networks and anyone else they may want to be involved.
We work towards maximising the choice and independence of our participants and facilitate tailored and flexible responses to our participants' goals and needs.
