The 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 report and accompanying data download, is to understand the profile and experience of participants who are deaf, impacted by deafness, hard of hearing, hearing loss, and hearing impairment.

- Participants – the profile of participants, including characteristics such as age, background, gender and demographics
- Payments – total and average payments according to age and SIL (Supported Independent Living) arrangements
- Participant outcomes – various measures of outcomes achieved by 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 participants, including the number of 'access met' decisions, participant satisfaction and complaints
