Therapy services are essential for people with disabilities as they help improve daily living, develop new skills, and achieve personal goals. Under the NDIS, therapies such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and psychological support can be funded if they are considered reasonable and necessary. These services must align with the goals outlined in your NDIS plan and directly contribute to your ability to participate in daily life or community activities. To access funding for therapy services, it is important to ensure that they are included in your NDIS plan. Therapies are typically funded under Capacity Building Supports, which focus on skill development and achieving goals.
Managing your therapy funding requires careful planning and budgeting. It is helpful to set up a service agreement with your service provider that outlines the cost, frequency, and duration of the sessions. The NDIS sets maximum prices that service providers can charge, so staying within these limits is crucial to make the most of your funding. A Plan Manager can help you understand your budget and track your expenses to ensure you do not overspend. NDIS participants with plan management support included in their plan can access both registered and unregistered providers. This flexibility allows them to find the right therapist while ensuring quality services. Registered providers adhere to strict NDIS guidelines, which gives many participants confidence and peace of mind in choosing their services.
