Understanding occupational therapy under the NDIS

The single most consequential output of an NDIS occupational therapy engagement is often the functional capacity assessment report — a document that becomes the evidentiary spine of your plan reviews, equipment funding requests, home modification applications, and Specialist Disability Accommodation eligibility submissions. A thorough functional capacity assessment from an experienced OT can mean the difference between funding that meets your needs and a plan that leaves you under-resourced for two years.

When choosing an OT, ask to see a (de-identified) sample of their NDIS report writing. Reports that NDIA planners actually use to justify funding tend to share specific characteristics: they describe functional impact in concrete terms (not diagnoses), they tie each support recommendation to a specific functional limitation, they reference standardised assessment tools (Functional Independence Measure, Vineland, AMPS, COPM as appropriate), and they avoid jargon that planners can't operationalise. OTs who only write reports for clinical handover and not for funding contexts often produce documents that don't move the needle at plan review.

For paediatric OT, the focus is typically fine motor skills, sensory processing, handwriting readiness, self-care routines and school participation. Adult OT skews toward workplace adjustments, driving assessments, home modifications and adaptive strategies for progressive conditions. Specialisation matters — ask about caseload composition by age and disability type.

Home visits are usually essential for any environment-related goal (mobility, transfers, kitchen safety, bathroom access). The NDIS price guide ($193.99/hr base rate) caps travel charges; these must be agreed in writing before the visit. For follow-up therapy sessions, telehealth is increasingly accepted and can improve access for regional participants.
