Super Simple Service Agreement
Our NDIS Service Agreement is designed to make engaging with supports easier. This agreement is straightforward, minimising the confusion that long agreements can cause.
In this service agreement, “we”, “us” and “our” is a reference to Alliance Rehabilitation Pty Ltd, the provider, while “you” and “your” is a reference to the party who made this service agreement with us, the participant.
1. Our Super Simple Service Agreement

A person can agree to this service agreement on your behalf by requesting supports for you. The person agreeing to this service agreement on your behalf warrants that they have the authority to do so and agrees to show you this service agreement before supports are provided.

9. What supports do you receive from us?
You receive the supports that you request from us and that we agree and are able to provide. Supports can be requested by asking one of our coordinators.
10. What do you pay for supports?
The price of supports provided to you by us will be the price limit the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has set for the provision of the support for participants in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) as at the time and place the support is provided. For supports without a price limit determined by the NDIA, we will notify you of the applicable price prior to providing the support. Our prices are set by us, not the NDIA.
You agree that we can charge you and claim payment from your NDIS plan and service bookings for direct service provision, telehealth, non-face-to-face support provision, provider travel, provider travel labour costs and non-labour costs, short notice cancellations, NDIA requested reports, other reports, and any other fees or charges or claims applicable to the supports you request or are provided.
11. Quotes and budgets
Quotes are subject to change by us, such as due to changes in the price and availability of supports. If we have set a budget for your supports, we may cease providing supports once the budget is used up.
12. How do you pay?
Payment for a support or invoice is due on the day it is provided. You consent to us claiming payment from your NDIS plan and service bookings if you have one. If payment is not made for a support or cancellation fee, we may cease providing supports to you.
- If you are portal managed, we will make service bookings and claim payments on the NDIS portal reflective of the supports that you request or are provided.
- If you are plan managed, we will contact your plan manager for payment. We may ask your plan manager to confirm that you have sufficient funding for the supports that you have requested.
- If you are self managed, you must pay for supports when they are provided. You must pay us even if the NDIS has not paid you. Payments are to be made through our reception.
13. What happens if the NDIS does not pay?
You are ultimately responsible for paying for all supports provided to you by us and any applicable cancellation fees.
14. Cancellation Fees
A fee of 100% of the support price will apply for supports cancelled with less than two business days’ notice, or if you miss or arrive late for a scheduled support session. For supports scheduled for delivery outside Townsville or Mackay, a minimum of seven days’ notice for cancellations is required to avoid this fee.
If you need to cancel a support or are unable to attend an appointment, please contact and notify our coordination team during business hours.

You agree to comply with and abide by all reasonable directions given by our team and representatives.
16. Intellectual Property

We will withhold access to assessments, documents, files, records, reports, and information when we deem reasonable or if you have unpaid fees or charges.
