There are three ways to manage your NDIS funding. These include the following options:
- Self-managed Funding
- Plan-managed Funding
- NDIA or Agency-managed Funding
Self-managed and plan-managed clients may access psychological services funded by NDIS from any psychologist.
Self-managed Funding
The NDIA provides you with funding for you to access the support services that will best help you pursue your goals. Self-management allows you to have control over and responsibility for your NDIS funding. It gives you the flexibility and choice to decide what supports you buy to pursue your plan goals.

The NDIA provides you with funding in your plan for a Plan Manager who pays your service providers for you. They help you keep track of your funding and take care of financial reporting for you. Depending on your circumstances, they can also help you choose your providers.
