Eligibility:
The NDIS finances reasonable and necessary supports for individuals with disabilities. Since everyone’s needs and, consequently, their support plans are unique, not all individuals qualify for Support Coordination funding. To increase the likelihood of being eligible for Support Coordination, it is advisable to articulate the reasons you believe it is necessary during your planning meeting.
Potential eligibility factors for Support Coordination due to disability encompass challenges in communication, language barriers, complex support requirements, or limited social situations and support networks. Those who are incapable of making informed choices may also meet eligibility criteria.
Should you require guidance or have inquiries regarding your Support Coordination needs, don’t hesitate to connect with our team at Embrace Quality Care. We are always ready to assist.
