How a Plan Manager helps Braybrook participants
A Plan Manager handles the financial administration of your NDIS plan. They pay your support providers' invoices directly from your NDIS funds, track your budgets against the NDIS price guide, and complete all the claiming paperwork with the NDIA. This means you keep full control over who provides your supports while someone else manages the payments and reporting.
For example, the Plan Manager featured on this page, MyMoney, performs this role, allowing you to choose any registered or unregistered provider while they handle the finances. This combination of choice and administrative support is why many participants find Plan Management valuable. You can talk to a Plan Manager via the panel on this page.
