What is NDIs & Can I have meals under my plan?

Can I have meals in my NDIS plan?

Well it is definitely quite possible!

A lot of participants of the scheme often ask us “Can I have meals delivered in my NDIS plan?” We understand there is a lot of information to digest (pardon the pun) and for many Aussies, this will be the first time they have ever received this sort of assistance.

Most participants are not aware they can receive our healthy meals to their door as a part of their plan! (If it is deemed, reasonable and necessary – see here for more info).

Am I eligible?

There are two ways you can be eligible for NDIS Meal Delivery in your plan:

1. As a Stated Line Item: If you have Preparation and Delivery of Meals as a stated line item in your plan (under Core Supports), then yes, you can have meals delivered. A quote is provided (our team can help you out there) to your planner to approve before service can commence.
2. As Part of Your Flexible Daily Activities: If you have a Daily Activities budget in your core supports, you can choose to spend some of this on meal delivery, if it helps support your goals (for example, increased independence)

Not sure if your plan has either of these? Reach out on 0434 878 004 and we can talk through it with you!

If I am eligible, how does this work? What will I get charged?
Our ordering process is SUPER easy and we offer one-off orders or recurring weekly options (no lock-in contracts!). We promise that you don’t have to fill out hundreds of pages of paperwork to order healthy, fresh and high-quality meals to your door. Just email our Customer Service Team or call them on 0434 878 004 and we will send you our simple order form.

NDIS will pay for 80% of your total bill. You will only be charged a small 20% co-payment of the total cost – this is because the cost of the ingredients is not covered by NDIS. And we have to pay those hard working farmers!

We know this can be overwhelming, so please reach out  to ask us any questions. Our dedicated Customer Care team are always here to help!
