What is NDIS?
NDIS or National Disability Insurance Scheme is a government program in Australia, which is designed to provide funding, care and support to people living with mobility or other restrictions, their families and their immediate caregivers.
The Eligibility Criteria For Receiving NDIS Funding
To be eligible for the NDIS funding, an individual has to be between 7 and 65 years of age. Besides, the individual has to be an Australian citizen with a valid passport and PR. Most importantly, the person must have to have permanent and significant disabilities, which affect their ability to participate in everyday activities.
What Is the Objective of NDIS?
The objective of NDIS is to support people with permanent and significant disabilities that affect their ability to carry out their daily chores autonomously. The goal of NDIS may entail ensuring more independence, greater involvement in the community, education, health, employment and the overall well-being of participants.
Application Process For NDIS Funding
You can apply for NDIS by getting in touch with the NDIA or National Disability Insurance Agency directly, either online over phone or in person. The officials over there will guide you through the application process.
Creating The Plan
The NDIS plan is a written agreement that is prepared with the consent of NDIS participants. Since every plan is expected to be different from the other, questions are asked in regards to various intricate functional details of life. This helps in chalking out a participant-centric plan that caters to the respective needs of participants.
Changing The Plan
In case participants are not happy with their NDIS plan they can always change it. For that they can request a review. This involves getting in touch with the NDIA and explaining the reason behind the desire to change the plan.
