For NDIS providers

Run your NDIS team in one place.

Connect rosters, shift notes, timesheets and invoicing. Manage direct support, coordination or both, with Atlas to help with admin and your team reviewing the work.

Shift notes written against each participant’s goals

Upload a participant’s NDIS plan and TakeCareOS lists their goals. As a support worker writes or speaks a shift note, it’s checked as it’s written: a vague entry, or a note that could say which goal the support worked towards, is pointed out before the shift ends.

When a note mentions something that needs follow-up, like a fall, the coordinator hears about it with the next step ready. See how notes are checked.

  • Notes spoken or typed, then tidied
  • Vague notes and missing goal links pointed out as they’re written
  • Progress reports drafted from the notes, goal by goal

NDIS invoice lines you can trace and review

Support items and price limits come from the NDIS Support Catalogue. Shift-based invoices retain the support item, quantity and rate from the service record. Worker timesheets follow your pay configuration, with their own review and approval before payroll.

Each participant’s funding is set per support: NDIA-managed lines are exported for the bulk payment request, plan-managed invoices go to the plan manager, and self-managed invoices go to the participant. Most participants are plan-managed (69.0% nationally at 30 June 2026), so invoices that a plan manager can process first time matter. [1] Invoices sync to Xero and MYOB.

NDIS claiming in 2026

Worker screening and qualifications, tracked before they lapse

Each worker’s screening check, first aid and other qualifications sit on their profile with an expiry date. Needs attention lists what expires soonest, and the worker is asked to upload the new certificate straight from their phone.

Registered providers must make sure workers in risk-assessed roles hold a current check. [6]

NDIS Worker Screening Check

How long a check lasts. It’s recognised nationally and recorded in the NDIS Worker Screening Database. [6]
1 database
Employers see each worker’s status in the national NDIS Worker Screening Database, using the worker’s screening ID. [6]

Records ready when the auditor asks

NDIS audits look for evidence that supports were delivered as agreed. Registered providers face a verification audit (a desktop review, for lower-risk supports) or a certification audit with an on-site stage, and certified providers have a mid-term audit 18 months into registration. [7] [8]

The NDIA expects records such as support logs, rosters, case notes and service agreements to show the participant, date, hours and support type for every claim. [9] Most reportable incidents must be notified to the NDIS Commission within 24 hours. [10]

NDIS questions

Something else? Ask us in the demo.

01

Does TakeCareOS use the current NDIS Pricing Arrangements?

Support items and price limits come from the NDIS Support Catalogue. Invoice lines show the selected item, quantity and price. Your team reviews the services and funding arrangements before sending.

02

Can we bill NDIA-managed, plan-managed and self-managed participants?

Yes. Each participant has a management type, and invoices are split by who pays: NDIA-managed lines are exported for the bulk payment request, plan-managed invoices go to the plan manager, and self-managed invoices go to the participant.

03

How does TakeCareOS help with NDIS audits?

Shift notes, incident reports, care plans and worker qualifications live with the participant and the worker, tracked changes are kept in the audit log, and Needs attention shows expiring checks before they lapse.

04

Can we move across from ShiftCare or another system?

Yes. We move your data from ShiftCare, Visualcare, Brevity, Care Diary, Astalty, Careview and eZaango, other platforms or spreadsheets. It doesn’t matter what the platform is. We can get it done in a week.
