FAQs

Does every NDIS participant need a service agreement?

A written agreement is strongly recommended because it records what is agreed, how billing works and how both parties can raise concerns or make changes.

Can a service agreement be signed electronically?

Yes, provided the signing process is appropriate for the participant, nominee or representative and your organisation keeps the signed record securely.

Should support coordination rates be included?

Yes. Include the support item, hourly rate, pricing basis and what happens if NDIS price limits change.
