Common billing scenarios
- A provider submits a quote for this support based on the participant’s individual needs. The NDIA or plan manager reviews the quote before approving the funding.
- The participant and provider agree on a price and service scope. The provider then submits a claim against this code for the approved amount.
Provider notes
- This is a quotable support, so there is no fixed price limit. You will need to submit a detailed quote to the NDIA or the participant’s plan manager before delivering the service. The quote should break down the expected costs and justify why the amount is reasonable.
- Capacity Building funding is time-limited and goal-oriented. Document how the support contributes to the participant’s plan goals, as this will be reviewed at plan reassessment. Unlike Core funding, Capacity Building budgets are usually not flexible across categories.
