When a Functional Capacity Assessment is typically needed

You’ll usually consider one for evidence when:

  • Applying to access the NDIS
  • A plan review or change of circumstances is approaching
  • Daily supports no longer reflect actual needs
  • Funding has reduced - or may reduce at the next review
  • SIL, SDA or increased supports are being explored
  • An NDIS planner or Support Coordinator has requested evidence

Why Video Calls Work for Assessments

We get asked this a lot: “Does the NDIA actually accept reports from video call assessments?”

Short answer: yes, absolutely.

Here’s why it works. An NDIS Functional Capacity Assessment (FCA) isn’t hands-on therapy. We’re not diagnosing conditions or delivering treatment. We’re consulting with the participant, reviewing evidence from their treating team, using validated assessment tools, and writing clinical recommendations based on all that information.

The assessment itself is about gathering the right evidence and knowing how to interpret it. That doesn’t require us to be physically in someone’s living room. In fact, for many participants, especially those with social anxiety or sensory sensitivities, video calls are actually less stressful than having a stranger show up at their home.

What matters is the quality of the clinical reasoning and the writing. That’s where experience counts.

What People Say

Testimonials

Support coordinators and families tell us the same things matter most: report quality that leads to successful outcomes, clear communication throughout the process, and actually delivering on time. Here's what they've said about working with us.

  • I have seen a lot of FCA and SIL reports, and this would have to be one of the best written assessments I have ever seen. I was a bit unsure initially due to it being telehealth only but so far, I have been impressed (and I’m not impressed easily). Thank you for making this such an easy process.

  • Please thank your team for us, it is one of the most thorough and well laid out reports I have read in a while. I have passed on your details to all my Coordinators to provide as an option to other Participants. The process for referral and assessment along with communication with your team was fantastic. I hope to work with you again in the future.

  • Thank you for sending it through. It’s a great report and I’m sure we’ll be able to get N’s plan increased.

Everything You Need to Know About Our NDIS Assessments

Common Questions

We know you have questions about telehealth assessments, timelines, and what makes a quality NDIS report. Here are the answers to what support coordinators and families ask us most.

  • Does the NDIA accept telehealth assessments?

    Yes. The NDIA recognises that Functional Capacity Assessments rely on consultation, evidence gathering, and clinical reasoning—not hands-on therapy. An FCA isn’t about diagnosing conditions or delivering treatment. Our senior OTs consult with the participant, review evidence from their treating team, use validated assessment tools, and translate all of that information into clear, clinically justified recommendations. Quality comes from understanding NDIA expectations and presenting the evidence properly. Our OTs have completed more than 1,000 telehealth FCAs using this process, with consistently strong outcomes.

  • How quickly can you get the assessment done?

    Within 48 hours of receiving the signed Service Agreement, we allocate a senior OT and our admin team contacts the participant to schedule. Assessment calls typically occur within 1–2 weeks, and reports are delivered 10–14 business days after the call. Have a tight deadline? Speak to us and we can prioritise.

  • What makes your reports different?

    Three things set us apart. First, our standardised framework is continuously updated to match current NDIA expectations. Second, every report is written by a senior OT with 5+ years experience specialising exclusively in NDIS assessments, then peer-reviewed by another senior OT. Third, we focus on getting it right the first time, reducing the need for follow-ups or revisions. The result is detailed, evidence-based reports that properly address the participant’s needs and have strong success rates with the NDIA.

  • What types of assessments do you offer?

  • What if there’s a tight plan review deadline?

    Just note it in the referral form. Our admin and clinical coordination team can prioritise when needed for urgent cases. We consistently deliver high-quality, detailed reports even under tight timelines, without compromising accuracy or clinical depth.

  • Is telehealth assessment less stressful than in-person?

    For many participants, yes. Video calls can feel less daunting than having a clinician visit your home. You’re in a familiar, comfortable environment and can have family members or carers present for support. Our OTs are experienced at making telehealth sessions relaxed and conversational while still gathering all the evidence needed for a comprehensive report.

  • Do you offer in-person assessments?

    Yes. In-person assessments are available in selected areas across Victoria, Queensland and South Australia. Telehealth is available Australia-wide.

  • Can assessments be completed by telehealth?

    Yes. Many Functional Capacity and Home & Living assessments can be completed effectively by telehealth, depending on the participant’s circumstances and assessment needs. Our senior OTs use the appropriate mix of interviews, supporting evidence, assessment tools and clinical reasoning to build a clear picture of the participant’s functional needs. In-person assessments are also available in selected areas across VIC, QLD and SA.

  • Do you support participants in regional or rural areas?

    Yes. We support participants Australia-wide, including regional and remote areas. Telehealth is available nationally, with in-person assessments also available in selected areas across VIC, QLD and SA.
