We spoke with five experienced support coordinators/recovery coaches to get their advice on how providers can attract and serve loyal clients by supporting them to avoid over and underspending their plan funds.

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) review is underway and it’s an opportunity for providers to have a say about how to make the Scheme better for everyone.

Claire Wittwer-Smith knows the NDIS inside and out. We asked her about the latest NDIS review, what it means for participants, and why you should get involved.

What are the impacts of overspending and/or underspending an NDIS plan budget?

What role does a support coordinator play in assisting their clients to understand their overall budget and the different categories of funding within it – and helping them to budget and allocate their funding to the supports they need?
