What is NDIS Plan Management?

NDIS plan management is an NDIS-funded service that helps you handle the financial side of your plan. An NDIS plan manager takes care of payments, tracks spending, and keeps your budget in check—so you don’t have to. It gives you more freedom to choose providers, without needing them to be NDIS-registered. The best part? There’s no out-of-pocket cost when plan management is included in your funding.

Expert Advice from Professionals

Work with experienced professionals who understand the NDIS inside and out. We’ll help you get the most value from your plan and stay on track.

Flexibility, choice and control

With NDIS plan management, you’re free to choose from a wider range of providers — even if they’re not NDIS-registered. This can make a real difference, especially in regional or remote areas.

Free Up Your Time and Less Stress

NDIS plan managers handle the behind-the-scenes work — from processing invoices to paying service providers. No spreadsheets. No hassle. Just more time for what matters most.

Real-Time Budget Monitoring

Stay informed with monthly statements. Know what’s been paid and what’s still available in your plan — without chasing up the numbers yourself.

Funded Separately

NDIS plan management is funded separately in your NDIS plan, so it won’t affect the budget for your other supports.

Your NDIS Plan Management Options

When it comes to managing your NDIS funding, you’re not locked into one method — there are a few ways to go about it.

Plan Managed

A Plan Manager takes care of your invoices and payments. The NDIS covers their fee separately, so there’s no extra cost. You still get full choice over your providers — even those who aren’t NDIS-registered.

Self-Managed Plans

You receive the funds directly and handle everything yourself — from paying providers to keeping records. This option offers maximum control, but also comes with more admin.

Agency-Managed Plans

The NDIA handles all payments, but you can only work with NDIS-registered providers. It limits flexibility but reduces your paperwork.

A combination

You can even combine different methods across various parts of your plan — depending on what suits your situation.

Among these, Plan Managed strikes the right balance. It offers flexibility without the admin load — which is why it’s a popular choice for many NDIS participants.

At Empowrd, we focus on making your NDIS experience smoother, simpler, and more empowering from start to finish.


When you choose us as your provider of NDIS plan management services, you get more than just admin support — you gain a team that knows the system and works with you every step of the way.


We handle the finer details so you don’t have to, including:

  • making payments to your providers
  • verifying that services are delivered

You keep full choice and control over how your funds are used — and because plan management is separately funded, it won’t impact your other NDIS supports.

Plan Management FAQs

  • Why should I use a plan manager?

    Managing a plan under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) comes with plenty of moving parts — and that’s where a plan manager can make life easier. At Empowrd, our team takes care of the admin so you don’t have to. We handle the claiming process, pay your providers, and keep your NDIS budget on track — freeing up your time and taking the pressure off.

  • How to find a plan manager for NDIS?

    Managing NDIS funding can get tricky — finding the right NDIS plan manager can free up your time and reduce the stress. A great starting point is the myplace participant portal, where you can explore registered providers available in your area. You can also connect with your Local Area Coordinator (LAC), Early Childhood partner, or support coordinator for suggestions based on your situation.


    Take time to compare a few options. Check how responsive they are, what services they include, and how well they match your expectations. Some offer an obligation-free chat, which can help you decide if they’re the right fit before committing.


    If you’re based in Whyalla and need a local plan manager, reach out to Empowrd — we’re here to help.

  • How much does a plan manager cost for NDIS?

    There’s no out-of-pocket expense if your NDIS plan includes the Improved Life Choices category. This is where plan management is funded — separate from your other supports.

  • Will this affect my disability funding?

    Not at all. The cost of having a plan manager is covered on top of your usual funding. It won’t take away from your care, therapy, or other services.

  • How are my providers paid?

    Once your provider submits an invoice, your plan manager processes the claim through your NDIS service bookings. Payments are usually made within 24 hours, depending on approval status.

  • Can I replace my NDIS plan manager?

    Yes — you’re free to make a change at any point. Just let your current plan manager know, confirm the final date, and line up a new provider to keep everything running smoothly.

  • Is it possible for the NDIS to deny my request for a plan manager?

    No. Every NDIS participant has the right to choose plan management if they wish — no explanation needed.

  • Can NDIS plan management work alongside support coordination and supported independent living?

    Absolutely. Plan management, support coordination, and supported independent living (SIL) are separate NDIS supports that can work hand in hand. While your plan manager handles the financial side of things — like processing invoices and tracking budgets — your support coordinator focuses on connecting you with services and helping you build the right mix of supports. If you're receiving SIL, plan management can take care of the admin involved in paying your providers, so you can focus on building independence and achieving your goals.


    If you're in Whyalla, Empowrd can also assist with your NDIS support coordination needs. We make it easier to manage every part of your plan in one place.
