What is an NDIS Service Agreement?
A NDIS service agreement serves as a contract between an NDIS participant and their service provider, clearly defining expectations in compliance with the Australian Consumer Law.
NDIS participants rely on service providers to access the necessary support and services essential for achieving their goals. Both registered and unregistered NDIS providers offer these services, allowing you the flexibility to choose based on your NDIS fund management preferences. If you are self- or plan-managed, you have the option to collaborate with either registered or unregistered providers. However, for those with agency/NDIA-managed funds, services can only be obtained from NDIS-registered providers.
Prior to receiving these supports and services, the NDIS mandates participants to enter into service agreements. These agreements outline the expectations and terms of engagement for both parties involved.
Why Do You Need an NDIS Service Agreement?
The NDIS service agreements protect you, your NDIS plan, and the provider by outlining the specific services and terms in effect. It sets clear expectations for support and services to be provided.
The service agreements enhances clarity and accountability to strengthen the participant-provider relationship. They ensure that your service provider understands their obligation to deliver support that aligns with your plan. This is particularly crucial, considering the NDIS allows participants to choose their providers.
For support providers, the NDIS service agreements clearly outline the nature of support provided, frequency of delivery, and means of handling disputes.
Who Can Sign a Service Agreement?
A service agreement should be between a NDIS participant and the service provider. However, appointed alternative decision-makers or nominees, can include:
Guardians
An appointed guardian can determine the suitable NDIS services for a participant depending on their scope of authority, except managing financial matters. Personal responsibilities outside the guardian’s control should be negotiated directly with the participant.
Administrators
A financial administrator or trustee will only sign parts of a NDIS service agreement directly impacting financial affairs. This administrator is appointed to manage your assets and funds.
Plan Nominees
The NDIA can appoint a plan nominee for an individual with diminished decision-making capacity either at the individual’s request or at the initiative of the NDIA. The authority of a plan nominee is limited to the conditions set by the NDIS. The NDIA states that a plan nominee may act on behalf of the participant on matters relating to;
Preparation, review, or replacement of the NDIS plan
Management of funding for support under the NDIS plan
Managing your NDIS Service Agreement
After creating, reviewing, and signing your NDIS service agreement, a few ways exist to manage it effectively.
Keep Copies: Keep a copy of the signed agreement for your records and ensure your service provider keeps a copy.
Monitor Progress: Regularly review your goals and theNDIS services delivered and examine whether they are helping you achieve your goals.
Open Communication: Maintain contact with your service provider and be open to discussing any concerns or changes.
Plan Ahead: As your NDIS plan evolves, you may have to adjust your NDIS service agreements. Plan accordingly for regular reviews and updates.
Advocate for Yourself: Remember, you are in complete control of your NDIS journey, and if something is not working, speak up and advocate for the service you need.
A NDIS service agreement serves as a key component throughout the NDIS journey, guaranteeing that your needs are addressed, and your rights are protected. Given that your NDIS experience involves collaboration with service providers, it’s crucial to ensure that all your concerns are acknowledged and mutually agreed upon. Ask questions, propose modifications, and assert your preferences, as it is your NDIS plan. Once every detail is addressed in the NDIS service agreement, you can trust that your NDIS plan is tailored to work effectively for you.
Cancellation of Service Agreement
3 weeks notice is required.
