Do I Need a Service Agreement?
Yes. This is a NDIS requirement to safeguard both NDIS participants and the provider. This doucument is a written agreement that is created at your initial appointment. The agreement includes how many treatment sessions and the total cost which will be deducted from your funding. You both will sign the agreement and a copy will be sent to your plan manager (if you have one).
Initial NDIS Physiotherapy Assessment:
During your initial appointment, your physiotherapist will talk to you and understand what type of treatment you would like they will also take down your detailed medical history. They will also conduct a thorough assessment of you and your condition. This appointment is also where you develop your service agreement.
