A guide to The NDIS

Would we fund it?

From the NDIS Web site - 

"We are updating our Would we fund it guides to reflect new NDIS legislation. See the latest information about what NDIS funds.

Sometimes it’s hard to understand why the NDIS has made a decision to fund or not fund a particular support or why decisions appear to be different for people with the same or similar disability to you.

When we make a reasonable and necessary decision, it is based on many different things; including what your disability support needs are, your living arrangements and what is reasonable for informal supports, like families and carers to provide – everyone is different. 

'Would we fund it' includes examples of commonly requested items that we find cause the most confusion. For each item, we explain how we make reasonable and necessary decisions about them and provide an overview of whether or not we typically fund them. This guide is intended to be read alongside the Our Guideline - Reasonable and necessary supports, and new items will be added as they are developed.

We have updated the following Would we fund it guides since new NDIS legislation and rules started on 3 October 2024."
