Frequently asked questions
Can I use a Plan Manager if my provider is in a different suburb?
Yes, absolutely. Plan Management is not limited by geography. Your Plan Manager, whether based in Austral or elsewhere in NSW, can pay any registered NDIS provider you choose, giving you the freedom to select the best support for your needs regardless of location.
What's the difference between Daily Living Supports and Support Coordination?
Daily Living Supports refer to the hands-on assistance with everyday personal and household tasks.

Many providers in Austral, such as Star Family Care, offer both services.
