No. Compensation for a personal injury will not affect your eligibility to access the NDIS. However, if you are receiving payments or have done so in the past, then it is possible that any funding relating-to this claim may come out of what was originally planned by an individual’s employer through the NDIA. The organisation could also make adjustments on behalf of those individuals’ claims once they receive them which would account both sides: those who received injuries themselves as well all other related costs such. The National Disability Insurance Agency The NDIS is run by an independent government organisation known as the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA). The eligibility of someone becoming an NDIS participant is reliant on the approval made by the NDIA. It also decides how much funding the participant is entitled to receive. These decisions are based on legislation called the National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013 which sets out: The eligibility requirements every NDIS participant must meet What supports and services are considered reasonable and necessary for the NDIS to fund. Partners in the community There are community-based organisations who work with the NDIA to deliver the NDIS. These community-based organisations are called ‘partners. These partners provide Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) or Local Area Coordination. There are also some organisations in the community that provide both. Partners of Early Childhood Approach (ECA) Local organisations that deliver the early childhood approach are known as early childhood partners. Our early childhood partners have teams of professionals with experience and clinical expertise in working with young children with development delay or disability and their families. Local Area Coordinators (LAC) An LAC is the conduit between a participant and the services within the community. They will connect people with disability to supports, services and various activities within their community and other government services. On the other hand,  LACs work in communities to help them become more accessible for participants reliant on the NDIS.
