NDIS Support Coordination

NDIS Support Coordination is a service that is sometimes included in an NDIS participant's plan.

It is to help you understand how to implement the right supports needed to achieve your goals. 

It is also there to help you understand your responsibilities as an NDIS participant and to help you find your way around the NDIS participant portal so you can keep track of things and process claims if needed. 

As an autism specific service, we know that the needs of each person on the spectrum are as individual as they are. This means it is particularly important that we work with a genuinely person-centred approach to ensure that we are working in partnership with you according to your individual needs, wants and preferences.

A good support coordinator will provide support and assistance in a number of ways, including help you to:

• find & assess supports and services - mainstream and community as well as funded supports
• negotiate services and their prices, develop service agreements and create service bookings 
• arrange assessments 
• budget for each support type 
• liaise with plan managers
• resolve problems or issues that arise
• understand your responsibilities under service agreements
• change or end a service agreement

A good support coordinator will also help you prepare for your plan review by helping you:

• assess whether you achieved your goals and got value for money for your plan
• identify solutions to problems experienced in implementing the plan
• consider new goals
