How does this appear in my 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.
