How to Choose the Right NDIS Plan Manager (and Why It Matters)

A lot of people think you have to call the NDIA to get a plan manager.
That’s not true. You can choose any registered plan manager you want and the choice you make can affect how well your plan works day to day.

Here’s what to look for 👇

✅ Speed of payments – Ask how long they take to pay invoices. Late payments can cause service gaps.
✅ Transparency – Do they send monthly statements or have a participant portal so you can see your budget in real time?
✅ Communication – Can you talk directly to your plan manager, or will you get passed around?
✅ Reputation – Check reviews on Google and Facebook. Red flags like “never answers calls” or “pays late” are a warning.

A good plan manager doesn’t just pay bills — they help you understand your funding and make your supports run smoothly.

🟦 I also provide Support Coordination and Psychosocial Recovery Coaching.

Still using Excel for Support Coordination?
I switched to Astalty because it keeps everything in one place and saves time.

Key points from my video:
• Quick snapshot of each participant: name, NDIS number, plan dates, DOB.
• One-click copy of details straight into emails.
• Supports, goals, records, documents, and financials all together.
• Budgeting and utilisation tracking built in.
• Team ready: assign a primary coordinator and manage multiple teams.
• Check-ins you can set to weekly, fortnightly, or monthly.
• Clear participant profile fields: DOB, signing preference, diagnoses, contacts, reference numbers, addresses.
• Fewer clicks than most CRMs to find what you need fast.

If you run coordination as a business, this setup keeps you organised and makes reporting smoother.

Hi everyone, I’m Allan 👋

After seven years working as a Support Coordinator and with my own lived experience I’ve seen how many people want to move forward but don’t always know where to start.

Sometimes, what makes the biggest difference is having someone walk beside you.

Here’s how I support people through my Peer Mentoring Program:
• I take time to listen and understand what’s working and what feels hard.
• We set small, realistic goals that make sense for where you’re at.
• Each session is hands-on we practise, plan, and reflect together.
• I use plain language, no jargon, and move at your pace.
• Everything we do is about real progress building confidence and independence one step at a time.

If you or someone you support wants calm, practical mentoring that helps make life feel more manageable, I offer a free meet-and-greet to explore what would help most.
