What is an assistive technology assessment?
An assistive technology (AT) assessment is a face to face evaluation, usually led by an occupational therapist, that matches equipment and home modifications to a person’s daily tasks and goals. Under the NDIS Pricing Schedule 2026-27, the assessment and its report sit in the Improved Daily Living support category, which is what funds the OT’s time before any equipment is purchased.
How to choose a provider for this service
The list above is ranked using the criteria explained in the methodology section. Four checks matter most when you compare AT assessment providers yourself.
Registration. Confirm the occupational therapist is AHPRA registered and, for NDIS funded assessments, that the practice appears on the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission provider register.
Response time. AT waitlists blow out fast when a provider is slow to reply at enquiry stage. Check the response time by state table further down this page before you book.
Pricing transparency. Ask for a written quote against the $193.99 hourly cap in the NDIS Pricing Schedule 2026-27, and confirm whether travel and report writing are billed separately.
Coverage. Carevo lists 642 occupational therapists nationally, but availability is uneven; ask whether the therapist actually visits your suburb rather than a nearby one.
Which funding pays for an AT assessment, and who qualifies?
NDIS participants with a Capacity Building support category in their plan can fund the assessment itself, and often the resulting equipment, under Improved Daily Living (NDIS Pricing Schedule 2026-27). Support at Home clients qualify once an aged care assessment under the Single Assessment System assigns an AT-HM tier, Low (under $500), Medium (up to $2,000) or High (up to $15,000, more in complex cases), recorded in the Notice of Decision and available for around 12 months (Department of Health and Aged Care, 2025). DVA-eligible veterans can access assessments through veterans’ funding, and a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan gives a partial Medicare rebate for OT time only, not equipment.
Availability across Australia
Carevo lists 4,782 suburbs with provider coverage nationally, with occupational therapists concentrated most heavily in New South Wales and Victoria. If your AT needs centre on mobility equipment rather than a general assessment, compare mobility equipment providers, or start with a home modifications assessment if the priority is your home layout.
