What Kindgrounds Helps With

Plan management is the financial administration side of your NDIS plan. Kindgrounds helps make that work easier to follow, so you can focus on supports, goals and daily life.

Provider invoice processing

Invoices can be checked for key details before they are submitted for payment processing.

Budget tracking

Clearer information about spending, remaining funds and plan categories across the plan period.

Payment records

Provider payment and invoice records kept together for easier reference and review preparation.

Plain-English explanations

Funding categories, invoice wording and confusing plan details explained without jargon.

Support coordinator updates

Useful budget and invoice information can be shared when consent and setup details allow it.

Plan review preparation

Spending records can help you understand what was used, what was under-used and what to discuss at review time.

Using Local and Online Providers

Many participants in Victoria use a mix of local providers, online providers and sometimes interstate providers. Plan management can help keep those invoices and records in one place.

If your plan is plan-managed, you may usually have more provider choice than with NDIA-managed funding, including the ability to use some unregistered providers where the support is appropriate, allowed and properly invoiced.
