What Support Coordination Covers
The Support Coordination registration group includes the following services. When referring, match the specific service type to the participant's plan goals and funded line items.
Level 1: Support Connection
Basic linkage to services and supports. Helps participants understand their plan and connect with providers. Lowest level, suitable for participants with straightforward needs and good informal supports.
Level 2: Coordination of Supports
Standard support coordination. Plan implementation, provider research, service agreement management, progress reporting, and plan review preparation. The most common level, suitable for most participants.
Level 3: Specialist Support Coordination
For participants with complex, high-risk needs. Involves multiple interacting services, crisis management, justice system involvement, homelessness risk, or hospital discharge coordination. Higher rate reflects the specialist skills required.
Common Referral Scenarios
Real-world situations where you would refer a participant for support coordination in Cohuna.
A participant's current Level 2 coordinator is leaving and they need a replacement. When referring, provide a handover document covering active providers, pending referrals, and plan review dates.
A participant with complex psychosocial needs and justice system involvement needs Level 3 specialist coordination. Refer to a coordinator with specific experience in the intersection of disability and criminal justice.
A participant is unhappy with their coordinator and wants to switch. Help them understand their right to change, then refer to an alternative coordinator. Ensure a proper handover period where both coordinators overlap for continuity.
What to Expect After Referral
When a participant transitions to a new coordinator, expect a 2-4 week handover period. The outgoing coordinator should provide a written handover document, and the incoming coordinator should contact all active providers to introduce themselves. Good coordinators are responsive (reply within 1 business day), proactive about plan utilisation, and transparent about their caseload capacity.
Red Flags to Watch For
Warning signs that a support coordination provider may not be delivering quality services.
Coordinator unresponsive for days at a time
No progress reports or plan review documentation
Coordinator making decisions without consulting the participant
Caseload so large that participants receive minimal attention
No handover documentation when the participant changes coordinators
Coordinator recommending providers they have a financial relationship with without disclosure
How Support Coordination Works with Other Supports
Support Coordination interacts with every other support category because the coordinator's role is to connect and manage all services. When referring to a specialist Level 3 coordinator, ensure they have experience with the specific complexity involved (psychosocial, justice, housing crisis) rather than just general coordination experience at a higher rate.

What to Check Before Making a Referral
Registration Status
Verify the provider holds the correct NDIS registration group for support coordination. Check the NDIS provider register if uncertain.

Availability and Waitlists
Ask about current waitlist times. For urgent referrals, check multiple providers simultaneously to find the fastest availability.

Cancellation Policy
Review the provider's short notice cancellation terms. Under the NDIS Price Guide, providers can charge up to 100% for cancellations within 2 business days.
Reporting and Communication

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Level 2 and Level 3 support coordination?

Can I refer an NDIA-managed participant to an unregistered provider?

What should I do if there are no available providers in Cohuna?

How do I check if a provider is NDIS registered?
Check the NDIS Provider Register at provider.ndis.gov.au. Search by provider name or ABN. The register shows current registration status, registration groups, and any conditions on registration. Providers listed on Carevo display their NDIS registration status on their profile.
What information should I include when making a referral?
Include the participant's name (with consent), their NDIS plan number, the relevant line items and budget available, the service frequency needed, any specific requirements (cultural, language, gender preference), and your contact details as the referring coordinator. The more detail you provide, the faster the provider can assess whether they can accept the referral.
