How a Plan Manager helps Burwood participants

A Plan Manager takes on the financial administration of your NDIS plan, which lets you focus on receiving your supports. They pay your providers' invoices directly from your NDIS funds, track your spending against your budget, and provide regular statements so you always know where your plan stands. This service is funded separately in your plan, so it doesn't cost you any of your support budgets.

The right Plan Manager for you will depend on your individual circumstances and preferences. You can talk to a Plan Manager via the panel on this page, or learn more about Plan Management to help inform your choice.
