How much does Plan Management cost?
If you have requested for your plan to be plan managed the NDIS will allocate funding specifically for the cost of engaging with a plan manager. There is NO out of pocket cost to you.
The cost of Plan management is fully covered by the NDIS under your plan, and includes a:
- One-off set up cost
- Monthly fees (for each month of your plan)
Funding for plan management will be allocated under Capacity Building, Category 14 -Improved Life Choices (CB Choice & Control), and this is how it appears in your plan
Note: The amount available in your Plan Management - Monthly Fee depends on how long your plan period is and location. I.e. 12 months x $104.45 = $1253.40
What happens if I change plan managers?
If you choose to change plan managers during your plan period, the new plan manager will not receive an establishment/set-up fee, however your current plan manager will release all the remaining monthly fees for your new plan manager to claim.
