Online: Assistive technology changes for support coordinators
he NDIA invites support coordinators to an information session to enhance their understanding of the changes to the NDIS assistive technology (AT) process.
The NDIA has improved the way we fund assistive technology:
- Quotes are no longer needed for AT items under $15,000, making it easier and faster for participants to get the AT supports they need.
- Some evidence is still required to make sure participants get the right AT.
- Only AT items valued over $15,000 will need a quote.
The NDIA has also released a vehicle modifications and driving supports guideline and template, to make information simpler and clearer.
These improvements are part of the NDIA commitment to have less red tape when accessing AT supports.
Providers can also find guidance materials under Providing assistive technology.
