As most of you already know SPM is ceasing services. With a price freeze for plan managers over the last five years, the increasing workload the NDIS compliance team are placing on plan managers and the threat that in a few years plan management will no longer exist and all funds will be agency managed it is time for a new chapter in our lives. Please know that this was not an easy decision to make.

To allay some rumours out there, we are not closing the doors until all our participants have been informed and had time to transition to another PM.

To make this a smooth and easy process we have aligned with NDSP. If any of our participants wish to choose NDSP for plan management this will make your life really easy. We can ensure there is no gap in supports, no doubling up of payments and we will continue support until transitioned.

On behalf of our team it has been lovely supporting, meeting and talking to our clients over the past few years. We are all proud of the business we have built and the service we have provided. It has been a pleasure.

One of the most important changes coming from the new PACE system relates to service agreements.

While you’ll still have a service agreement with us, you’ll need to ā€˜endorse’ service providers via the NDIA (which includes plan management and support coordination providers). This simply tells the NDIA that you’re choosing Shoalhaven Plan Management to manage your plan.

There are two ways a participant or nominee can endorse Shoalhaven Plan Management:

• Via ā€œMy NDIS contactā€ – could be a Local Area Coordinator or Planner
Contact your Local Area Coordinator/Planner to advise that you would like to endorse Shoalhaven Plan Management as your plan manager.

• Via the NDIA
Contact the NDIA National Call Centre on 1800 800 110 and advise that you would like to endorse Shoalhaven Plan Management as your plan manager.

Endorsement can only be done by the participant, their nominee, or their guardian. As a support coordinator, you cannot endorse providers on your participant’s behalf.

If you are already with Shoalhaven Plan Management and starting a new plan, your NDIS contact will call you before your plan’s end date and you will need to advise that you’d like to endorse us as your plan manager.

With the new PACE system comes some updates to Support Types and Categories.

1
Recurring Transport has been introduced as a new support type, in addition to Core, Capacity and Capital. This is a self-managed category specifically designed for regular transport payments.

2
Five additional categories have been introduced that will be ā€˜stated supports’, *which are funds that are not flexible and cannot be transferred to other supports.

Core supports now includes two new categories:
• Home and living
• Young people in residential aged care (YPIRAC), however, this is an NDIA-managed category

Capital supports includes two new categories:
• Assistive Technology, maintenance, repair and replacement
• Specialised Disability Accommodation (SDA)

Capacity Building includes one new category:
• Behaviour supports


3
Five existing category names under Capacity Building are also being updated.
• Support coordination -> Support coordination and psychosocial recovery coach
• Improved relationships -> Relationships
• Improved health and wellbeing -> Health and wellbeing
• Improved learning -> Lifelong learning
• Improved life choices -> Choice and control

What is PACE and its purpose?
PACE is an upgrade from the NDIA’s older system, designed to enhance the NDIS experience for participants, providers, and their families.

What is NOT changing:
While PACE brings updates, some things remain untouched. Your supports stay the same, but some may have new names.
The fundamental structure of NDIS Plans, Item Support Numbers, the NDIS Act, the provider registration process, and NDIS Commission obligations all remain intact.

What IS changing:
The key changes include updates to support types, categories and how the NDIA interacts with participants throughout their plan journey.
