We have updated the NDIS Guide to Self-management.
We have also published:
- an updated Our Guideline – Creating your plan
- a new animation about how self-managing an NDIS plan works
- links to useful self-management resources and networks.
An improved guide
The updated guide features new and improved information including:
- what self-management is
- the different supports available to help people learn more about how to self-manage
- how to arrange and pay for supports, including an updated ‘can I buy it?’ section
- how to make a payment request and avoid common mistakes
- what to expect from payment reviews
- information on using the my NDIS app
- new participant profiles.
A clearer guideline
We have updated Our Guideline – Creating your plan to provide more information about:
- plan management options and what they mean
- changing plan management options
- what it means to self-manage
- how we make decisions about physical, mental, legal or financial risks
- how we reduce and address risks.
These resources have been updated to reflect the NDIS Self-Management Policy, which was released in October last year.
