What Does an NDIS Plan Manager Do?

Managing your NDIS funds shouldn’t be stressful. That’s where a Plan Manager comes in. With the right support, you can keep your choice and control while letting someone else handle the financial admin. At Access Your Supports (AYS), we make Plan Management simple, fast, and stress-free.

What Is Plan Management?

Plan Management is a service under the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) that helps participants handle the financial side of their plan. Instead of doing the paperwork yourself, a Plan Manager takes care of paying your providers, tracking your budget, and keeping you informed.

If Plan Management is included in your plan, it costs you nothing extra. The NDIS pays for it separately under “Improved Life Choices.” This means you get support without losing any of your funding.

What Does a Plan Manager Do?

At AYS, our Plan Managers:

  • Pay invoices on your behalf
  • Track your spending in real time
  • Help you understand your funding
  • Make sure you follow NDIS rules
  • Offer support when you have billing questions

We make sure everything runs smoothly so you can focus on what matters most: your goals, your health, and your daily life.
