Review evidence

To decide if early intervention supports that will benefit the person will be NDIS supports, you must consider:

  • the recommended early intervention supports
  • if an appropriate treating professional has made the recommendation
  • what is provided by mainstream and community supports
  • if the supports are the services, items and equipment that are NDIS supports
  • our legislation and guidance
  • if we have enough evidence to decide or need more.
