We’ve all been hearing about I-CAN *a lot* lately. But the government seems much less eager to talk about the next step: the development of a budget.

Which is kind of wild when you think about it, ‘cause budget development is the whole point of the needs assessment. Nobody is doing I-CAN for the fun of it.

Sara Gingold could not live with the mystery, so in her latest article she sorted through all the diverse sources of information to get a sense of what we know, what we don’t know and everything in between.

Did you know the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing is currently consulting on the definition of an ‘NDIS provider’?

Much more than an exercise in semantics, the finalised definition of an NDIS provider could impact which providers need to register with the NDIS Commission.

The NDIS Registration Taskforce recommended that the government amend the definition of an ‘NDIS provider’ and require all providers who meet that definition to be registered under a new, more proportional registration system.

Currently, any individual or business paid by NDIS funds is technically an NDIS provider. The Taskforce recommended creating a more specific definition of an NDIS provider that excludes mainstream outlets (e.g., Bunnings, Kmart, etc.), where people might spend some of their NDIS funding.

You can see how the proposed definition of an NDIS provider in the image below. Consultation closes 28 Feb. To learn more go to: https://consultations.health.gov.au/disability-and-carers-group/ndis-provider-definition-consultation/
