Did you know that your organisation can self-manage its NDIS funding? Self management actually provides more flexibility and choices to determine which supports are ideal to pursue your objectives. Don’t worry; the task doesn’t have to be daunting when you have the right NDIS self management software. It will provide the information you need to make informed decisions, particularly on how funds must be used to best meet your unique requirements. That makes it a good platform to have once you have decided to self-manage and you have already spoken with your NDIA planner or Local Area Coordinator.
Why use a software solution?
By self-managing, you can have the flexibility to use any provider, more choices in deciding the supports you purchase for your plan and how they can be delivered, obtain the capacity to contract or employ staff directly, and achieve more control and responsibility over your NDIS funding for effective budget management. It lets you negotiate the costs for supports to get the best value for your money, too. The NDIS self management software can be helpful in overseeing your supports, plans, staff, funding, and costs in one secure platform. This way, you can avoid any guesswork and inconsistencies in your data!
Cloud-based software
High-quality NDIS software is cloud-based, so it is accessible using any web-connected device and allows you to manage your data anytime and anywhere. This can be beneficial for tracking participant outcomes and goals. It is NDIS compliant, too, so you are assured accurate and reliable access to up-to-date information.
Practical features to support you
NDIS self management software comes with features that will streamline your workflow. Data entry is easier with a drag-and-drop functionality, and you can automatically synchronise payments and invoices by integrating the software with an accounting system. Time and costs are also easier to track using the configurable employee expenses feature, which helps oversee contractor costs and minimise internal administration.
