The National Disability Insurance Scheme puts you at the centre of the decision making process about how you want to live your life, your choice of supports and who you would like to deliver your supports.
Previously each state and territory has managed disability support themselves, and the system was underfunded, unfair, fragmented, inefficient and gave people with disability little choice.
The government has set up an agency – the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) – to implement the NDIS, provide a single pool of funding, and run the planning process.
