Frequently asked questions
Is Samaritans NDIS registered?
Yes. Samaritans is registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission and approved to deliver support coordination. You can verify their registration on the official NDIS provider register.
How is support coordination funded?
Support coordination is paid from the Capacity Building budget in your NDIS plan. If it is included in your plan there is no out-of-pocket cost — Samaritans claims directly against your plan at NDIS price-guide rates.
Does Samaritans operate in New South Wales?
Samaritans is based in New South Wales. Many coordinators also support participants in other regions by phone and video, so it is worth asking about coverage for your area.
Can I change support coordinators?
Yes. You can change support coordinators at any time without an NDIS plan review. Check your service agreement for any notice period, then sign an agreement with your new provider — Samaritans can help with the transition.
