How Do Plan Managers Get Paid?
It’s one of the most common questions we’re asked — and the answer is simpler than you might think! 🌿
When you choose plan management in your NDIS plan, the NDIS provides extra funding specifically for this service.
That means:
✅ It doesn’t come out of your existing budget
✅ It doesn’t cost you anything
✅ Every participant is entitled to it
Your plan manager takes care of the admin, paying invoices, tracking your budget, and handling claims, so you can focus on achieving your goals, not the paperwork. 💪
At Disability Plan Services, we keep things transparent and easy. You’ll have 24/7 access to your own budget dashboard, plus monthly reports so you always know where your funding stands.
Thinking about switching to plan management? We can help make it simple, just reach out to our team! 💬

Support coordination isn’t just about organising services, it’s about helping you build momentum toward your goals 🛠️
Research shows that coordinated supports & Local Area Coordination reduce social isolation, increase wellbeing, and help people feel more in control.
If your plan includes – or should include – support coordination, we can help you navigate that journey.
14/10/2025
Managing your NDIS plan doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Plan management & support coordination are proven supports that help you:
🔹 Keep track of your budget, invoices and payments so nothing slips through the cracks.
🔹 Choose the providers that suit you - including those not officially registered - giving you more choice & flexibility.
🔹 Connect with services & supports in your community, reducing isolation and helping you feel more in control.
At Disability Plan Services, we believe in empowering you to use your NDIS plan to its fullest, so you can focus on what matters: your goals, your wellbeing, your life 💪✨

NDIS Updates Made Simple
The NDIS has introduced some important changes to help make plans clearer and easier to manage. Here’s what you need to know 👇
✨ Impairment Categories – A new way of grouping disabilities (like physical, neurological, psychosocial, or intellectual) so your supports better align with your needs. You’ll see this at your next plan review or if you’re starting a new plan.
✨ Funding Components – Your budget is now broken into clear sections (like personal care, therapy, or transport), making it easier to see where funds can be used.
✨ Funding Periods – Instead of accessing your full budget at once, funds will now be released in stages (often 3 months at a time) to encourage sustainable use across your plan.
💡 Not sure how these changes might affect you? Our Plan Management and Support Coordination teams at Disability Plan Services are here to help you navigate the updates with confidence.
Did you know the NDIS can help fund a wide range of assistive technology (AT) – from wheelchairs and communication devices to adaptive kitchen tools and even vehicle modifications? 🚶💬🍴
AT can make a huge difference in building independence, boosting participation, and improving everyday life 🙌
In our latest post, we break down:
✨ What types of AT the NDIS can fund
✨ How to apply for funding (step-by-step)
✨ Tips to make your request successful
Swipe through to learn how to access the tools that can support your goals and independence. 🌟
