What is NDIS?

National Disability Insurance Scheme

The NDIS stands for the National Disability Insurance Scheme and is overseen by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA). This is the new method for funding and delivering disability services in Australia. The most major change is that, for the first time, persons with disabilities will have a say in who provides the services they require. We're delighted about the prospects provided by this revolutionary funding model at Wellness Services Pty, and we're proud to be an NDIS provider.
