| Who handles the admin? | Your Plan Manager | You | The NDIA |

77% of South Australian participants use a plan manager
More than 7 in 10 people on the NDIS across SA choose plan management, according to the latest NDIS data.
For most Adelaide families the reason is simple. They would rather spend their evening at a swimming lesson than reconciling invoices. Plan management takes the financial admin off your plate, keeps budgets on track, and still leaves you free to pick the providers that suit your family.

NDIS plan manager Adelaide FAQs
What does a Plan Manager actually do (and not do)?
We pay provider invoices, track your budgets, and explain what you can and can’t claim under NDIS rules. We don’t coordinate therapy, book appointments or manage clinical care — that’s for a Support Coordinator or LAC. With your consent, we can request clarifying info for payments (like ABNs or service dates) to keep claims compliant. Our goal is simple: less admin for you, faster, accurate payments for your providers.
Will I get a real person who knows our family?
Yes, you’ll have a dedicated team who gets to know you, your plan and what matters to you. Because we keep track of your history, you won’t have to explain everything from the beginning each time you call.
We answer the phone, call back quickly and speak in plain language. You’ll get clear, practical guidance from people who understand the NDIS and are genuinely here to help.
Can you work with hospitals and clinics in Adelaide when paperwork is needed?
With your consent, we can contact local clinics or hospitals to request reports or letters needed for funding claims. For example, we can liaise with Royal Adelaide Hospital or Flinders Medical Centre to confirm item details for invoices or obtain supporting documentation. We don’t organise appointments or clinical care, but we make sure the billing information is correct. That keeps payments moving and avoids rejections.
How fast do you pay providers?
We process complete, compliant invoices promptly — no unnecessary holding of funds. Providers get paid as soon as possible so your support team stays engaged. You can see claims and balances live in our Portal and App. If something doesn’t meet NDIS pricing rules, we’ll explain what to fix, step by step.
Do you understand the needs of families and communities in Adelaide’s suburbs?
We support participants across the north, south, hills and coast — from Salisbury and Modbury to Morphett Vale and Glenelg. We often connect with local community hubs and councils to help you find nearby, trusted providers. If a report is required, we can request it from places like the Women’s and Children’s Hospital or Lyell McEwin Hospital so your claims don’t stall. You get practical, local know-how backed by NDIS expertise.
Can you help me choose providers or compare costs?
Yes — our NDIS Navigators can share local options and explain price limits so you can choose confidently. We stay independent and don’t take commissions. You decide who provides the service; we make sure the claiming is correct and within NDIS rules. Clear, visual budget reports also show if you’re under- or overspending.
Do you specialise in certain disabilities or support needs?
We have strong experience supporting participants with Acquired Brain Injuries, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Developmental Delay, Intellectual Disabilities, Multiple Sclerosis and Spinal Cord Injury. We understand typical support mixes and where plans commonly run tight. That means we spot issues early and help you pace your budget. You get practical advice before small problems become big ones.
How do I switch to Plan Hero or add plan management to my plan?
At your NDIS meeting, ask for plan management to be included — it doesn’t reduce your other funding. Then tell your LAC or planner you’d like Plan Hero as your Plan Manager (Provider #4050079575, ABN 43 641 197 659). We’ll set you up, load your details, and start paying invoices quickly. You’ll have 24/7 access to our Portal and App to track budgets, claims and statements.
