NDIS Plan Managers ‘Not Paying’

If your plan manager is holding back on paying your invoice, it could be due to recent changes in the NDIS legislation.

Here’s what you need to know:

One…Plan managers are now more accountable for ensuring funds are used according to approved NDIS plans. If they mismanage funds or allow overspending, they may be liable for debts.

Two…Accurate records are essential! Plan managers must maintain comprehensive documentation of all transactions. Inadequate records can lead to payment delays.

Three… Plan managers must adhere to all relevant laws. Non-compliance can result in penalties, including loss of their registration as an NDIS provider.

And Four…The NDIA has a zero-tolerance policy for unethical behavior. If a plan manager is found misusing funds, they face serious consequences, including removal from the NDIS.

So, what does this mean for you?

If you’re facing issues with your invoice, it’s crucial to communicate with your plan manager and understand their reasons. Be open but also know the rules and be ready to link them to information if you would like to challenge their process . Remember, these are challenging times and we all need to work together to navigate these new waters.
