NDIS Plan Review for Autism Spectrum Disorder Participants in Chermside

Typical Annual Funding

$15,000—$120,000

Based on NDIS quarterly data for Autism Spectrum Disorder participants in QLD

Common Gaps Found

4 categories

typically missing or underfunded

Assistive Technology

Many planners overlook assistive technology funding because participants may not know what devices are available or haven't had an AT assessment. Items like communication devices, specialised software, and adaptive equipment can significantly improve independence.

$15,000/year typical

Behaviour Support

Behaviour support is frequently underfunded because initial plans often underestimate the complexity of developing and implementing comprehensive behaviour support plans. Participants with complex behaviours may need ongoing specialist input.

$18,000/year typical

Improved Daily Living (Therapy)

Therapy funding is commonly inadequate because plans often allocate based on minimum sessions rather than clinical need. OT, speech, and psychology sessions at recommended frequency can cost significantly more than initially allocated.

$12,000/year typical

Group & Centre Activities

Social skills programs and group activities are crucial for building social capacity but are often excluded from plans. These programs provide structured environments for practising communication, relationship, and community skills.
