To manage NDIS plans for a Participant navigate to their NDIS Plan page within their profile. This page will look slightly different depending on whether or not the Participant has a current NDIS Plan. If you are creating the first NDIS Plan for a Participant, this page will look like the screenshot below.
To add a new NDIS Plan, click the Add Plan button. This will open the Create Plan form where you will need to enter;
Start date
End date
(optional) whether or not this is an PACE plan - this is unticked by default
By telling Astalty than the plan is a PACE plan, Astalty can show you the correct budgets when adding Services and Implementations
Once a Participant has finished their current plan and receives a new plan, do not delete the NDIS Plan already in Astalty. Instead, you can simply add the new plan. To do this, select 'Add Plan' within the current plan table.
Or navigate to the NDIS Plan page and scroll to the bottom where you will find the Add Plan button and you can following steps for creating a plan outlined above.
Astalty does not allow NDIS plans to overlap - if you try to add a plan with dates that overlap another plan, you will see an error message.
In this example, the new plan starts on the 1/1/2024 - so the current or previous plan must be editing to ensure it finishes at least 1 day prior. In this case it would be 31/12/2023.
Generally once an NDIS plan has been created, the first thing you will want to do is add the Services you will be delivering under this plan. Please head to the Services page to learn more about this.
Astalty has powerful implementation tracking features making it easy for you to ensure your Participant's plans are being utilised and implemented. Head to the Implementations page to learn more about how to make the most of this great functionality.
