What is an NDIS Meal Allowance?
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding to help Australians with disabilities access the support they need to lead independent and fulfilling lives.
The NDIS meal funding helps cover meal preparation and delivery fees. While the cost of the actual ingredients aren't covered, the allowance makes healthy eating more accessible by covering the convenience of having fresh, ready-made meals delivered straight to your door.
Examples of meal-related expenses covered by the NDIS include:
- Meal preparation services
- Delivery fees for pre-made meals
- Special dietary meal prep for your needs
How NDIS Meal Funding Works
The NDIS funding structure lets participants claim meal preparation and disability meal delivery services if these support their health and independence.Here’s how it works:
Funding Structure
NDIS covers services directly linked to improving independence and quality of life. Meal preparation and delivery services qualify under this category.
Allocation
Funds can be allocated to cover preparation and delivery fees, so you only have to pay for the food itself.
Reimbursement
You'll receive detailed invoices from us that you can use to claim reimbursement through your NDIS plan.
The NDIS Funding Breakdown
NDIS covers 70% of the cost that goes toward meal preparation and delivery. The remaining 30%, the cost of the ingredients, is covered by you.
It’s a simple split that gets you nutritious, ready-to-eat meals without the hassle of cooking, while still making the most of your NDIS plan.
