Registered or unregistered provider?
Agency-managed participants must use NDIS-registered providers. Registered providers are audited against the NDIS Practice Standards, and maximum prices apply to supports for NDIA-managed and plan-managed participants.
Self-managed and plan-managed participants can engage unregistered providers, which widens choice; price limits still apply to plan-managed funds.
