All NDIS funded products and services are listed as registration groups. There are a total of 36 Registration Groups to select from. You will need to go through each of the Registration Groups to clarify what they are and decide which of these groups you wish to include as your service offering. You can see a description of each Registration Group and what the specific requirements are to meet the qualification and experience requirements here Provider Registration Guide to Suitability. You will then need to understand of the Groups you have selected, which are deemed as Low Risk (less complex service delivery) or High Risk (more complex service delivery). Here's a link to view a table where each Registration Group fits See the description below of the implications of Low or High Risk Registration Groups (also known as Supports).
