Do You Have to Use Registered NDIS Providers?

While you have the flexibility to choose unregistered providers, using an NDIS registered provider like us ensures you receive services that meet the highest standards of quality and safety. Depending on how you manage your NDIS funding, you may have different options:

• Self-managed: You can use non-registered providers and claim the expenses back from your NDIS plan.

• Plan-managed: A Plan Manager helps you manage your funds, offering flexibility to use non-registered providers.

• NDIA-managed: You can only use registered providers, ensuring you benefit from the rigorous standards and protections in place.

​

Choosing us as your NDIS registered provider means you can trust in our commitment to delivering exceptional, safe, and compliant services. We are excited to bring our high-quality support to the NDIS community and look forward to serving you soon!

**Why Our Pricing Reflects Our Services**  

 

Our standard riding lessons are $110 and are available for upfront payment. These lessons are tailored for private-paying participants, offering flexibility and a focus purely on the riding experience. For these sessions, we can ‘do what we like,’ designing the lesson to suit individual goals without additional requirements.  

 

For NDIS participants, the process is fundamentally different. We are required to adhere to strict NDIS guidelines, which means we cannot simply offer a riding lesson. Riding alone (or other sports) is not currently funded by the NDIS, and the relevant line code is under review. Instead, our programs are structured to align with participants’ NDIS goals and plans. This includes session planning, detailed documentation, post-session reflections, report writing, and full compliance with NDIS standards. Payments for these programs can also be made after the sessions, as permitted under NDIS guidelines.  Unlike a service such as a psychologist who will take notes and write reports regardless of how a client pays, we do not do this for non NDIS participants and so we factor in our additional time. 

 

It’s important to understand that NDIS programs and standard riding lessons are not the same service. NDIS participants receive a structured program designed to meet specific developmental, therapeutic (for WildQuest Early Learners) or skill-building objectives. Non-NDIS participants, by contrast, experience a flexible and recreational approach without the same reporting and compliance requirements.  

 

Our NDIS-aligned programs, which may include riding as part of broader skill-building activities, start at $154 for our Equine Empowerment Program and go up to $185 for programs like the **Pony Quest Program**. These include arena setup, engaging activities, certificates, and more to create a comprehensive and tailored experience.  (Our WildQuest Early Learner's Program is billed at $193.99).

 

We are committed to adhering to the principles of **NDIS fair pricing** and ensuring our services provide value for all participants. Should a private-paying participant wish for their learning to be documented and structured in the same way as an NDIS program, we are happy to provide this service upon request at a comparable rate.
