Australian Federation of Disability Organisations (AFDO)��s Post

AFDO supports the Taskforce's recommendation to redesign complaints processes, making them a core obligation for all NDIS providers. This change is essential to ensure that all participants can raise concerns and receive timely responses, fostering accountability and trust in the system. Strong complaints and compliance systems are vital for upholding the rights of people with disability. Read the full report here: https://buff.ly/3yjT6jr #NDISReforms #ParticipantRights #AFDO

February Connect & Grow magazine is out now. In the section dedicated to NDIS we have a few updates and strategies You can read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gfuWX3sg Change is still in the air and it’s important we support each other. #ndis #disabilityinclusion #neurodiversity #connectandgrowmagazine

I reviewed an article about NDIS overcharging claims. Who would have thought that a system set up to support individuals with disabilities could be open to exploitation from ex-NDIS Participants? Are they prioritizing profit over actual care and concern? This is unacceptable. We can never let the most vulnerable among us be preyed upon. This is not a question about trust and integrity. This is about the right to be treated fairly as a human being. We need transparency and accountability to ensure every dollar is allocated effectively where it matters. We need to fight for reforms & the rights of so many people who rely on this essential support. #NDIS #DisabilitySupport #Accountability #Integrity #ReformNeeded

The recent NDIS price review threatens the essential support many people with disability rely on. According to a recent NDS survey, if unaddressed, up to 75% of providers may be forced to consider stopping some, or all of their services, leaving those who benefit from the NDIS at risk. Nexus is joining the call for immediate action by the NDIA and Government #4aBetterNDIS [Image description: A poster with a black background and text in white writing that says "75% of NDIS Providers who may be forced to consider stopping some, or all of their services following the 2024 Price Review Its time to protect your choice and control". Above the text are four silhouettes of people. Three are crossed out indicating the 75% of NDIS providers who say they many be forced to considered stopping services due to the price review.] 

4 a better NDIS The recent NDIS price review is a devastating setback for people with disabilities and the providers who support them. Barriers to high intensity support payments, yet again no increase for support coordination & therapy prices, and flawed cost models threaten essential services. Participants are vulnerable and providers are on the brink. We call on the NDIA to Reinstate loading for all registered providers of at least 1%. #4abetterNDIS #NDISReform #SupportPeopleWithDisabilities #SupportNDISregisteredproviders
