The Government has released an updated list of support services available to National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants. It flagged planned changes earlier this year but didn’t hand down details until this week. Internet, gym memberships, marriage counselling, wellness coaching and sex services are among the list of things not covered by the NDIS. Some disability advocates have raised concerns that they weren't given enough notice about the changes. In today's deep dive, we'll explore what's changed, what it means for participants, and what the reaction has been like.
