Blitzit Plan Manager is the independent link between you, your service providers and suppliers, and the NDIS.

Why use NDIS registered plan managers

Plan management helps you to manage the budget allocated to you by the NDIS. A registered plan manager becomes part of your personal team, providing you with the resources to track your financial plan management.

Your budget is the NDIS funding you receive specific to your disability, the types of services and resources you need, and your goals. Our goal as an NDIS registered plan management provider is to make life that little bit easier for you by taking away the administrative tasks associated with paying service providers.

All this is mapped out in your NDIS plan by your NDIS planner, which becomes the basis for the funding provided to you through the NDIS.

How Plan Managers Assist

Paying invoices

You no longer have to worry about bills stacking up – we’ll organise prompt payment of all invoices to external service providers. Our expert team understands the different types of funded supports and category codes, meaning you don’t have waste precious time or resources trying to sort through NDIS red tape. We cut through all of that for you.

Tracking your NDIS allocated budget

We’ve designed a handy tool to enable you to set up and track where your NDIS funds are going, so you have a clear idea of what you can spend on services and resources each month. We also send out monthly statements, so there’s full transparency on your allocated budget and your spending. Check out the Blitzit Online Portal (BOP) for more on how we automate your plan management services.

Communicating with registered and non-registered service providers

We understand that you want to receive the best care possible, and that you may use several services from a number of external providers in order to do so. We’ll organise the prompt payment of invoices to these service providers and suppliers on your behalf.

Choosing your own provider

The beauty of using an independent plan management option like Blitzit Plan Manager is you have complete control over the providers you use, as long as they have an ABN and can provide a tax invoice for their services.

Negotiate provider rates

When using a plan manager, you also have the option to negotiate rates -  either by engaging providers that aren’t registered with the NDIS, or by negotiating with registered providers – which stretches those dollars that little bit further.

Guiding you through the process

Our team are highly educated in NDIS plan management services and they’re here to help. The NDIS can be a tricky space to navigate, but our aim is to guide you through its possibilities, so you can get the funding and services you deserve.

Plan management price guide

As a registered plan manager, we receive payment through the NDIA for the services we provide, which means there’s no out-of-pocket expenses for participants to use our plan management services. There is a fixed price or rate for plan management services which can be found in the price guide.

It’s easy to include plan management in your NDIS plan – you just have to request the service through your planner or local area coordinator or support coordinator during your planning meeting. It’s that simple.

How to choose a plan management provider

Plan managers are often recommended to participants by their support coordinator, local area coordinator or NDIA planner. Here are five things you need to consider when choosing a NDIS plan management partner to support your NDIS journey.

  1. Trust: An integral part of every partnership is trust. Look for an NDIS plan manager who will have open and honest conversation with you about how your NDIS budget is tracking.
  2. Transparency: You need to feel comfortable with whoever you choose as your NDIS plan manager. Transparency through accurate monthly reporting and real-time information is the key to a long-lasting partnership.
  3. Knowledge: The NDIS can be overwhelming to navigate, so your plan manager must have a deep level of expertise in the ins and outs of the system. Having this knowledge allows them to give you the relevant advice and support, and educate you at the same time.
  4. Compliance: Whether it’s ensuring service providers and suppliers provide compliant invoices, or providing quality assurance within their own businesses, your plan manager should make compliance a priority. That way, you’ll feel confident that you’re receiving a high standard of care.
  5. Understanding: Your NDIS plan manager should have a good understanding of you, your situation and the goals you want to achieve. Only then will they be able to support you to get the most out of your NDIS plan.
  6. No conflict: The NDIS framework recommends that you should work with a plan manager that has no conflict of interest, who only offers plan management services. This ensures your plan manager has your best interests at heart.

At Blitzit Plan Manager, our knowledgeable plan managers will be with you every step of the way – from handling your invoices and making sure they’re ATO and NDIS compliant to tracking and reporting on your budgets.
