Navigating the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) can be overwhelming, especially for participants and their families in Melbourne. From understanding funding allocations to coordinating services, the administrative burden can detract from focusing on personal goals and well-being. This is where an NDIS Plan Manager Melbourne like Kencho Plan Management steps in. By outsourcing financial and administrative tasks to experts, participants gain more freedom, flexibility, and peace of mind. Here's why partnering with a Plan Manager in Melbourne—especially Kencho—can transform your NDIS experience.

What is NDIS Plan Management?

Plan Management is one of three options for managing NDIS funds. Participants can:

  1. Self-manage: Handle invoices, budgeting, and paperwork independently.
  2. Use the NDIA: Let the National Disability Insurance Agency manage funds (limiting provider choices).
  3. Hire a Plan Manager: Delegate financial tasks to a registered provider like Kencho Plan Management, who pays invoices, tracks budgets, and offers expert guidance while retaining your choice of providers.

Opting for Plan Management combines the flexibility of self-management with professional support, ensuring you never navigate the NDIS alone.
