ISM can answer all your questions
These are just some of the most common questions we get asked.
We have considerable experience and are happy to answer any questions you may have about a new NDIS plan or your existing plan:
What are the benefits of Plan Management?
Plan Managers deal with all the tricky accounting paperwork and accounting administrative tasks related to your plan. We will keep track of your spending, maintain accurate financial records, handle claims with the NDIA and make sure your providers get paid. ISM also tracks your spending and holds all of your service agreements in a secure location. Meaning you can focus on the more important stuff, like realising the goals in your plan.
What is Relationship Management?
Each customer and supplier that uses ISM services is given a dedicated Relationship Manager (RM). Each RM will work with you directly to ensure that your experience at ISM is handled professionally and as efficiently as possible. As your single point of contact, your RM is committed to the following:

What do plan managers not do?
The biggest misconception is that Plan Managers assist participants in locating appropriate services and link participants into services. How to best utilise your funding and discover the best supports for you is typically the role of your NDIS/LAC planner or Support Coordinator. Your plan manager is primarily responsible for ensuring the supports you choose are paid from your NDIS budget.
What if I don’t have plan management in my plan?
If your NDIS/LAC planner has included plan management, you will locate this budget in your NDIS plan in a Support Area: Improved Life Choices (this is Plan Management).
If you do not have this Support Area, you can request your NDIS/LAC planner directly to have your plan, or part of your plan, to be managed by a Plan Management agency.
What is covered by the NDIS? What can I claim under NDIS?
The NDIS covers the cost of support across a wide range of areas, from education, employment, and community participation to your living arrangements, independence, health, and well-being. What’s covered in your plan will depend on your situation and life goals. The NDIS uses the “reasonable and necessary” framework to determine what support you can be funded for. The NDIS can also fund Plan Management, which gives you more choice and control over what you can purchase. Contact our team today if you want to know more about how the NDIS supports specific costs.
Can I make changes to my NDIS plan?
If you want to make changes to your plan down the track, you can always ask for a review of your plan or submit a change of circumstances form. You will need to discuss this directly with your NDIS planner or LAC. Make sure you explain how and why you need to make adjustments as clearly as possible. For example, if your circumstances have changed.
