Your Rights & Responsibilities

As an NDIS participant, regardless of what your disability is, you have rights under the NDIS. You have the right to:

  • choose who delivers your support and how they do this. You do not have to use just one provider for all your supports

  • not use a provider if you feel they aren't acting in your best interests

  • ask if a provider has a conflict of interest

  • not feel pressured to buy services or supports you don’t want or need

  • pay for supports at a fair and reasonable rate. You must follow the NDIS Pricing Arrangement and Price Limits if you are NDIA-managed or plan-managed

  • decide what personal information you give to a provider so they can deliver supports.

As an NDIS participant with rights under the NDIS, you also have responsibilities. You are responsible for making sure the supports are:

  • directly related to your disability and align with your plan

  • not covered or delivered by another service system or organization (eg. Medicare or private health insurer).

If you self-manage your NDIS funds, you need to keep evidence of what you spend your NDIS funds on (eg. invoices, receipts, pay slips, and bank statements).
