National Disability Insurance Scheme

210 Ms COOK (Hurtle Vale) (10 September 2020). For the period 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2020, how many clients received the full value of their in-kind support coordination?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government): The Minister for Human Services has provided the following advice:

Under the commonwealth-state bilateral agreement for the National Disability Insurance Scheme the former Disability SA provided in-kind services in regional areas on an average annualised amount per person, as a result no information is available on the utilisation for these participants. In metropolitan areas the former Disability SA provided services and received funding on a per hour basis aligned to a participant's plan. As this service has closed, specific utilisation data for these participants across this time is not readily available.
