Understanding assistive technology under the NDIS

NDIS assistive technology (AT) sits in three cost categories that determine the evidence and process required. Low-cost AT (under $1,500) can be purchased directly from your Core or Capacity Building budget without quote or assessment — items like reachers, jar openers, basic shower stools. Mid-cost AT ($1,500-$15,000) requires a quote and a functional assessment from an OT or physio — manual wheelchairs, alternating air mattresses, assistive software. High-cost AT (over $15,000) requires multiple quotes, allied-health prescription with detailed rationale, and NDIA approval — power wheelchairs, complex seating, ceiling hoists, speech-generating devices, hearing aids beyond standard cochlear implants.

Trial periods are standard practice for mid- and high-cost AT and should be insisted upon. A 2-4 week trial of a power wheelchair in your actual environment reveals issues (kerb negotiation, doorway clearance, charging logistics, transport considerations) that no clinic-based fitting can predict. Reputable AT suppliers build trial periods into their quote process and won't pressure you to accept equipment without one.

Repair and maintenance funding is often forgotten in initial AT planning. The NDIS funds repairs and reasonable maintenance for participant-owned AT, but the funding has to be in your plan — typically as a separate line item under Capital Supports. For complex equipment (power chairs, hoists, communication devices), an annual maintenance budget of approximately 10% of the equipment's purchase value is a reasonable rule of thumb.

When evaluating AT providers, prioritise local service capacity. A power wheelchair from an interstate online vendor at a slightly lower price becomes an expensive false economy when you need a same-week repair and the supplier ships parts from Brisbane.
