NDIS CLAIMS

Australia Only

Step 1: Check With Your Plan Manager First

Before you claim anything, send a message to your plan manager.

This helps you:

  • Avoid rejected claims.
  • Avoid paying out of pocket.
  • Make sure it comes from the right budget.

Step 2: What to Ask Your Plan Manager

Hi, I would like to check if my 1:1 Autism/ADHD coaching sessions and workbook can be claimed under my Capacity Building funding?

The coaching helps me work towards my NDIS goals and build independence.

Can you please confirm:
• The correct funding category
• The correct item number
• If the workbook can be claimed
• That the hourly rate is within NDIS limits

Step 3: How It Is Usually Claimed

Most 1:1 coaching is claimed under:

  • Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living
    or
  • Capacity Building – Increased Social & Community Participation
  • Registered Nurse

The workbook must be:

  • Used as part of your coaching
  • Related to your goals
  • Considered reasonable and necessary

Why This Is Important

If your plan manager confirms everything first:

  • Your funding is protected
  • Your budget stays on track
  • You feel confident using your plan

Always confirm first. Then claim.

That’s the safest way to use your NDIS funding.
