Frequently asked questions
Is ARC Disability NDIS registered?
Yes. ARC Disability is registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission as an approved plan management provider. You can verify their registration at the official NDIS provider finder.
How much does plan management through ARC Disability cost?
By NDIS regulation, plan management fees are paid from a dedicated Improved Life Choices line item in your plan. You do not pay ARC Disability directly — there is no out-of-pocket cost to participants.
Does ARC Disability operate in Queensland?
ARC Disability is based in Queensland. Most plan management is handled remotely via phone, email and online systems, so they can support participants across multiple locations.
Can I switch to a different plan manager?
Yes. Switching plan managers is free and does not require an NDIS plan review. You can change at any time by providing written notice to your current provider, then signing with your new plan manager. ARC Disability can assist with the transition process.
