What’s the difference between a Plan Manager and Support Coordinator?
Plan Management and Support Coordination are similar in that they both help you make the most of your NDIS budget, but they differ in some key respects.
Plan Managers are there to manage your NDIS finances – they’re like your own NDIS bookkeeper.
Invoices from your providers are received and paid by your Plan Manager. Plan Managers also claim your funds from the NDIS portal and will provide you with a snapshot of where you are at.
Your Support Coordinator will not handle the finances, but will assess your situation and goals, interpret your plan and work out what combination of providers are the best fit for your needs.
They will also help build connections with providers, community and government networks to help you live a more fulfilled life.
Both Plan Management and Support Coordination are funded by the NDIS and you need to ask for both in your planning meeting. With Support Coordination, you need to prove that it is ‘reasonable and necessary’ for you to build your capacity and meet your goals.
With Plan Management, there are no conditions for funding and there’s a good chance that you’ll receive it, if you ask for it in your planning meeting.
You can receive funding for Plan Management and Support Coordination in the one plan. Since your Plan Manager and Support Coordinator offer complementary services, they can work closely to ensure that most of your bases are covered in bringing your plan to life.
The great thing about Plan Managers is that they allow you to access both registered and non-registered providers, giving you choice and opportunity. They don’t, however, help you choose the right provider, that’s the role of your Support Coordinator.
Can you assist me to find a provider for supports not currently offered by Auscare Support?
YES! We can assist you to find the best service providers for your unique requirements and introduce you to a broad range of provider networks through our Plan Maximiser.
