How to Get Plan Management Funding
-
Request it at your planning meeting
Ask your NDIS planner to include Plan Management funding under Improved Life Choices at your next planning meeting or plan review.
-
NDIS allocates a separate budget
Once approved, the NDIS adds a dedicated Plan Management budget to your plan. This does not reduce your core supports or other funding.
-
MCPM claims directly from that budget
We register as your plan manager and claim our fees from your Improved Life Choices budget. You never pay out of pocket.
-
Need a support letter? We can help
If your planner asks for evidence, MCPM can provide a support letter to help you request plan management funding at no charge.
What does plan management cost you?
Absolutely nothing out of your own pocket. The NDIS funds your plan manager separately under Improved Life Choices. Your core supports, therapy budgets, and daily activity funding are not affected in any way.
