You’re in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). You have your funding and you’re ready to spend it, with a burning desire to hit your goals. You’ve locked in a plan manager (us!) and you’re ready to focus on what truly matters – you!
What’s next?
At this point, you’re ready to choose your providers and (ideally) start locking in service agreements that will kick start your spending in the Scheme. A signed service agreement should lay out the supports you’ve engaged a provider to deliver, and the terms of your agreement – including the price, delivery dates and conditions.
This is where My Plan Manager’s client portal (web and app) comes into the picture.
Our client portal is a powerful tool that puts you in the driver’s seat of your NDIS journey, by letting you track your plan budget in real time and helping you to see what you’ve spent, right down to the last cent.
It’s like using a banking app that lets you see every transaction and all your available funds – except it’s been custom built for NDIS participants and their budgets. This means you’re never spending in the dark, there’s transparency of every facet of your funding, and you have control and the ability to increase spending or pull it back to make the best use of your NDIS dollars.
We’ve made our client portal as simple and powerful as we can, so you can breeze through the platform and make the most of your funding. And, if you’d like to use it on the go, you can access it via our mobile app too!
Here’s a look at what our client portal can do (with a virtual walk through at the end!).
Our client portal lets you track your NDIS budget in real time to see where your spending is up to. You can view support categories, support areas and monthly reports. You can generate your own reports to track spending too.
You can also see how much funding’s been allocated to different providers, based on what you’ve agreed upon in your service agreements. Allocating funding in this way (by talking to us) means that funding’s set aside – or locked away – for the supports you’ve agreed to, giving you assurance your providers can be paid quickly and simply, when the time comes. Of course, you can unlock funding whenever you want to – just get in touch with us and we’ll assist you.
You can submit claims for reimbursement through our client portal. Alternatively, you can email claims to [email protected].
If you’ve made a purchase out of pocket using a ‘buy now, pay later‘ option like Afterpay and you’re seeking reimbursement, the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has specific requirements, which we explain here.
Having visibility of past and current claims and the ability to look over invoices provides a complete record of where you’ve spent your funding and what supports you’ve received. These are securely stored and available for you to see at the click of a button.
With My Plan Manager, you can choose to approve every invoice – or invoices from specific providers – before we process them, offering you an extra layer of control over your funding. If you choose to do this, you can approve them inside our client portal – we’ll notify you once they’re ready to review.
If you’d like your support coordinator or another person in your life to access your information in our client portal, we can easily arrange this with your consent. You and they will need to complete this Client consent to obtain and release information form or alternatively, you can contact us to arrange it.
Our client portal has the latest security features, so your privacy and information are safe and protected. Best of all, there’s no password required! Multifactor identification means you can log in via SMS or email.
If you’re ready to take the next step, we recommend taking our virtual client portal tour to familiarise yourself with the different areas and features of the platform.
