Claiming these items

How to find and claim the right NDIS support item
  1. 1
    Identify the support and who delivers it
    Decide what the support is (for example self-care, community participation, therapy) and the worker level or profession delivering it, then find that section in the schedule.
  2. 2
    Pick the time band and intensity
    Choose the item for the day and time the support is delivered, and standard or high intensity. If one worker's support crosses two bands, the higher limit applies to the whole support.
  3. 3
    Use the claim-type item if it isn't direct service
    For therapy and early childhood items, claim cancellations, non-face-to-face work, provider travel, NDIA-requested reports and telehealth against the matching suffixed item (_CA, _NF, _PT, _RR, _TH).
  4. 4
    Apply the location
    Check the Modified Monash Model category of where the support is delivered and the isolated towns list, then use the national, remote or very remote limit.
  5. 5
    Check the price against the service agreement
    Claim no more than the limit and no more than the price agreed in the participant's service agreement. Limits include GST.
  6. 6
    Claim in the right unit
    Claim in the item's unit of measure (hour, each, day, week or month). For group supports, divide the limit by the number of participants in the group.
