What sorts of support are covered by NDIS funding?

[LifeBalanceNDIS]

The NDIS doesn't cover all the support a person with a disability may need. Some support comes from other government areas, like state health systems, or existing public and community services.

Generally, the NDIS funds reasonable and necessary support to help people with disabilities lead ordinary lives. These supports and services are categorized into three groups.

• Core - support with everyday tasks
• Capital - support for investments, like assistive technologies, equipment modifications for home or vehicle, or funding for capital expenses.
• Capacity Building - support that promotes independence and skill development.

If you're unsure whether the NDIS covers the support you need, consider reaching out to a Local Area Coordinator before proceeding with an Access Request. They can provide advice, and other public or community services might be more appropriate for your situation.
