Common questions
NDIS and physiotherapy
Is MoveWell an NDIS-registered provider?
This website does not claim NDIS registration. MoveWell accepts suitable self-managed and plan-managed enquiries; NDIA-managed participants generally need a registered provider.
Does having NDIS funding guarantee physiotherapy is covered?
No. The service needs to relate to the plan goals and rules, and enough relevant budget must be available. Confirm with the plan manager or support coordinator before starting.
Can a support coordinator make the enquiry?
Yes, with the participant’s authority. Please share the management type, goals, plan dates, invoice contact and reporting requirements.
Can you provide a report?
Reporting can be agreed when it is needed. The scope, purpose, due date and price should be confirmed in the service agreement before work starts.
