Understanding the NDIS

Everyone has different needs and things they want to achieve in their life.

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is the Australian Government’s way to help people with a disability have choice and control over how those needs are met.

Options Disability Support can also assist you in the areas of:

Support Co-ordination
At OPTIONS our aim is to strengthen your abilities to connect, resolve crisis, build capacity and resilience and assist you to organise all the supports you need from a range of sources.

As your ‘Coordinator of Supports’ we will work with you, advocate on your behalf, make sure you have the supports you need and ensure you are getting the most out of your plan.

Plan Management
Plan management assists you with managing your funds. Your NDIS plan must state that you are ‘Plan Managed’ to take up this option.

If you choose OPTIONS to act as your Plan Manager, we will manage your budget for you.

Under Plan Management, all services used by you are directly paid by OPTIONS, taking away the stress of paying for services yourself. OPTIONS claims on your behalf from the NDIS for services provided to you by both NDIS registered and non-registered providers.

What is TTP?
The Temporary Transformation Payment is a conditional loading that will assist service providers to continue the transition of working under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).

From 1 July 2019 the NDIA introduced the Temporary Transformation Payment (TTP)

The TTP is set at 7.5% of the support cost and will be reduced by 1.5% each year.

To access TTP pricing service providers must:

  • Be registered as an approved NDIS provider
  • Publish their service prices – OPTIONS follows the NDIS Price Guide 
    NDIS PRICE GUIDE

    Participants and their supports can also request a Quote of Support which will provide accurate information on prices for supports and activities directly relating to them.
  • List their business contact details in the NDIA Provider Finder
  • Participate annually in the NDIA-approved market benchmarking survey
  • Options Disability Support is compliant with the NDIA’s eligibility terms and chooses to use TTP prices where applicable.
