Frequently asked questions
Can I use a Plan Manager based outside of South Morang?
Absolutely. Plan Management is largely done remotely, so your Plan Manager does not need to be located in your suburb. Many participants choose a Plan Manager based on their reputation, communication style, and the specific features they offer.
What's the difference between a registered and an unregistered NDIS provider?
Registered providers have been assessed and approved by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. If you are Plan Managed or self-managed, you can use either registered or unregistered providers. If you are NDIA-managed, you must use registered providers. All providers listed in our directory are registered.
How do I know if a provider is right for my child?
Start by looking for providers with experience and qualifications relevant to your child's age and needs. Don't hesitate to ask providers like Cameron Wellness Centre Pty Ltd about their approach during an initial consultation. For more general guidance, the NDIS Learning Hub has resources on choosing supports.
