Understanding assistive technology under the NDIS

Assistive technology (AT) under the NDIS covers equipment, devices, and technology that help participants carry out daily activities, communicate, move around, and live more independently. The scope is broad — from simple aids like modified cutlery and shower chairs to complex powered wheelchairs, vehicle modifications, and communication devices.

The NDIS categorises assistive technology by cost and complexity. Low-cost AT (under $1,500) can often be purchased without prior approval, though it’s good practice to discuss it with your support coordinator. Mid-cost AT ($1,500 to $15,000) requires a quote and a recommendation from a relevant allied health professional, usually an occupational therapist. High-cost and complex AT (over $15,000) requires a detailed assessment report, multiple quotes, and NDIA approval before purchase.

The assessment process for mid-cost and above AT involves your therapist evaluating your functional needs, trialling suitable options, and preparing a written recommendation with justification for the specific product. Trial periods are particularly important for complex items like wheelchairs and communication devices — using a device for several weeks in your actual environment is the best way to confirm it meets your needs before the NDIS commits to funding it.

Repairs and maintenance for funded AT are also covered under the NDIS, either through your plan or via a reasonable and necessary request. If your equipment breaks down and you need an urgent repair, don’t wait for plan review — contact your support coordinator or the NDIA directly, as interim solutions can often be arranged quickly.

When working with AT suppliers, ask about warranty periods, expected lifespan of the equipment, availability of spare parts, and turnaround time for repairs. A good supplier will also provide training on how to use and maintain the equipment. For consumable items like continence aids or low-cost replacement parts, keep records of your usage to support future funding requests.
