Your personalised NDIS plan outlines your goals, the supports designed to help you achieve them, and the funding allocated to cover those supports.
NDIS plans may include up to four types of support budgets: Core Supports, Capacity Building Supports, Capital Supports, and Recurring Supports. Each budget is divided into specific funding categories.
PACE is the new computer system introduced by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA). It’s being rolled out gradually and will eventually replace the current system.
If you’re new to the NDIS, your plan will automatically be created in PACE. However, if you’ve been an NDIS participant for some time, transitioning to a PACE plan may take a little longer.
Why does this matter? The support budgets and categories in PACE plans differ slightly from those in the previous system.
