INQUIRY INTO IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NATIONAL DISABILITY INSURANCE SCHEME AND THE PROVISION OF DISABILITY SERVICES IN NEW SOUTH WALES
Name: Ms Linda McCourt Date Received: 8 August 2018
Apart from families being put through dreadfully stressful times trying to negotiate with the NDIS there is also another side to the story…. service providers not being paid to the point where they have had to lay off staff. Service providers having to merge with larger organizations in order to survive and maintain services to families. And service providers rorting the NDIS by putting their prices up extravagantly by fraudulently putting all their clients into a “high needs” bracket to claim more money from the NDIS. I’ve tried to report this to the NDIS… but no one ever returns your calls and basically they don’t care. The NDIS is failing families and providers.
