Frequently Asked Questions
NDIS Support Coordination is a service offered under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia. It is designed to assist individuals with disabilities to implement their NDIS plans to achieve their goals and maximise their plan’s benefits.
Support Coordination involves working closely with a Support Coordinator, who can provide guidance, information, and practical assistance to you. The main objective of NDIS Support Coordination is to help you understand your NDIS plan, connect with appropriate service providers, and coordinate supports and services to ensure that your individual needs and goals are met.
The NDIS recognises three levels of Support Coordination to assist participants in implementing their NDIS plans and achieving their goals. These levels are designed to cater to different needs and complexities. The three levels of Support Coordination are:
- Level 1 Support connection: This low level of support builds your ability to connect with informal and funded supports.
- Level 2 Coordination of supports:This medium level of support assists you to build the skills you need to understand, implement, and use your plan.
- Level 3 Specialist support coordination: This is a higher level of support may be funded for people whose situations are more complex and who need specialist support.
If you don’t already have funding set aside for an NDIS Support Coordinator, you’ll need to explain to the NDIS why you need one. Some key reasons could be that you’re going through a major life change, you don’t have a support network that can help, or this is your first NDIS plan.
There are three levels of NDIS Support Coordination available, which you will discuss at the initial planning meeting. Your local area coordinator (LAC) will help determine what you’re eligible for.
If you already have Support Coordination included you’ll find one of these codes in your NDIS plan:
- Level 1: Support connection 07_001_0106_8_3
- Level 2: Coordination of supports 07_002_0106_8_3
- Level 3: Specialist support coordination 07_004_0132_8_3
Not all Support Coordinators are the same and you have your individual needs. You should find a Support Coordinator that suits your goals, depending on what’s most important to you.
As an NDIS participant, you can switch Support Coordinators at any point in your NDIS plan. If your current Support Coordinator isn’t meeting your expectations, you might want to make a change.
Seven Angels makes switching easy, so there are no gaps in your support. Simply contact our team on 1800 009 924 to let us know you want to make the switch. We will then guide you through the transition process and ensure no disruptions to your service. We’ll also contact all your service providers to let them know we are now your Support Coordination contact.
If you’ve used a Support Coordinator in your current plan, then you already have funding for Support Coordination. You don’t need to contact the NDIS or your LAC, as there’s nothing they need to update or amend. It’s as simple as choosing the NDIS Support Coordination provider that you want to use.
