NDIS and Support At Home

NDIS Funding

For NDIS Participants. YourVoice is commonly funded through either Core Supports (Low Cost Assistive Technology) or Capital Supports (Mid Cost Assistive Technology), depending on how your NDIS plan is structured.

How the process works:

Occupational Therapy Assessment

Your Occupational Therapist (OT) assesses your functional needs and determines whether voice control of your bed or recliner is reasonable and necessary for your daily living and safety.
Prescription of YourVoice

If clinically appropriate, the OT includes YourVoice in their Assistive Technology report as a prescribed support. This prescription typically covers:

• The $900 hardware and setup component

• The $85 monthly service and software support component
Funding Pathway Options

Depending on your plan structure, YourVoice may be claimed under:

Core Supports – Low Cost AT (Consumables)

Often used when a participant already has a Low Cost AT budget available. This may apply to both the hardware component and monthly charges, subject to plan manager approval.

Capital Supports – Mid Cost AT

Used when YourVoice forms part of a broader assistive technology solution (for example, alongside a new bed or clinical seating).

Support At Home Funding

For people receiving assistance via the Support at Home Program (previously Home Care Package) YourVoice may be funded through the Assistive Technology & Home Modifications (AT-HM) budget under the Support at Home program, where it supports safe, independent living at home.

How the process works:

Speak with your Care Coordinator

Your care coordinator or case manager confirms whether YourVoice fits within your AT-HM budget and care goals.
OT Assessment (Government-Funded)

An Occupational Therapist conducts a home assessment to determine whether YourVoice is appropriate for your mobility, safety and independence needs.
Clinical Prescription

If approved, YourVoice is prescribed in the OT report as assistive technology to support daily function.
Procurement and Installation

Your home care provider arranges purchase, installation and onboarding of the YourVoice system on your behalf.

Your out-of-pocket cost

Clients typically contribute between 5% and 50% of the up-front equipment cost (which is c. $200) depending on pension status and individual funding arrangements.

The monthly service and maintenance cost ($85 per month) may be treated as what SAH terms a "clinical wraparound fee".

In this case there is there is NO out-of-pocket cost to the Participant.

What typically qualifies:

YourVoice may be approved where it supports:

Safer bed positioning and transfers
Pressure care and overnight repositioning
Reduced reliance on carers for routine bed adjustments
Fall risk reduction
Greater independence at home
