Frequently Asked Questions
What is Support Coordination?
Support Coordination is a service that assists you to understand and implement your NDIS plan, while working towards your individual goals.
Support Coordination helps you make the best use of supports in your plan and assist in points of crisis and navigating NDIS process. Support Coordination is a Capacity Building (CB) support, which helps you to understand and use your NDIS plan, as well as connecting you to providers, community, mainstream and other government services.
How do I pay for Support Coordination?
Support Coordination is included as a fixed amount in your NDIS CB budget. If you do not have Support Coordination as part of your NDIS plan please email us at info@scia.org.au.
What if I don’t have Support Coordination funding in my plan?
SCIA may be able to assist you with funding from other categories of your plan, including CB Daily Activity and Core. Please get in touch to discuss.
What is the difference between a Support Coordinator and a Plan Manager?
The role of a Support Coordinator and Plan Manager, is often confused. Although both are NDIS experts, they serve different functions.
A Support Coordinator works closely with the participant to understand their NDIS plan, connect them to services and achieve their individual goals. They will also assist in points of crisis and navigate through NDIS process.
A Plan Manager acts as a financial intermediary between your support providers and the NDIS. They will organise claiming of NDIS funds from the plan and payment to service providers. They will also assist by keeping participants up to date with their budgets and spend.
How do you change to SCIA’s Support Coordination service?
If would like to sign up with SCIA’s Support Coordination service, and you are currently with another service provider, we recommend you put the cancellation of your service in writing and honour the cancellation period as stated in your service agreement.
