The National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) regularly shares reports and data aimed at improving knowledge and understanding of how people with disabilities are experiencing the Scheme.
 
The purpose of this dashboard is to understand the profile and experience of participants who identify as First Nations people.

Using Scheme data, the dashboard summarises available information on: 

  • Participants – the profile of First Nations participants, including characteristics such as primary disability, age, background, gender and demographics   
  • Payments – total and average payments for supports to First Nations participants according to age and SIL (Supported Independent Living) arrangements
  • Participant outcomes – various measures of outcomes achieved by First Nations participants and their families and carers, including those recorded at Scheme entry and over time through longitudinal survey responses
  • Participant experience – various measures of the Scheme as experienced by First Nations participants, including the number of 'access met' decisions, participant satisfaction and complaints   
  • Providers – number of providers supporting First Nations participants and payments to providers by type of plan management
