The 70 / 30 Co-Payment
NDIS covers 70%. You pay just 30% for ingredients.
Under the NDIS price guide, Core Supports funds meal preparation and delivery — the ingredients themselves are the participant's out-of-pocket share. Here's the exact split.
| Item | Participant Pays (30%) | Plan Invoiced (70%) | Total Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Complete Meal (Curry + Rice) | $3.87 | $9.03 | $12.90 |
| Large Curry Only (450g) | $4.77 | $11.13 | $15.90 |
| Family Biryani (serves 3–4) | $8.97 | $20.93 | $29.90 |
| Weekly Box of 6 Meals | $23.97 | $55.93 | $79.90 |
Worked example: on a $12.90 complete meal, you pay just $3.87 out-of-pocket. We invoice your Plan Manager (or NDIA) $9.03 for meal preparation and delivery.
Plan Management Compatibility
We work with all three NDIS management types.
Plan-Managed
Tell us your Plan Manager's name and email plus your NDIS number. We invoice the 70% portion directly to them — they pay us, you never see the bill.
Best for hands-free billing
Self-Managed
Pay 100% upfront at checkout. We email you an itemised tax invoice showing the meal preparation & delivery split, ready to upload to the myplace portal for reimbursement.
Maximum flexibility
Agency-Managed (NDIA)
Contact us directly — we'll work with NDIA to verify your eligibility and the supports in your plan, then activate your account.

NDIS meal delivery FAQ
Straight answers for participants, families and plan managers
- Does the NDIS cover meal delivery?
- Yes. Meal preparation and delivery is a claimable Core Supports item when it is included in your plan. The NDIS funds 70% of a delivered meal — the preparation and delivery component — and the participant pays the remaining 30%, which represents the cost of the food itself.
- How does the 70/30 NDIS meal split work at Sona's Kitchen?
- You pay 30% at checkout and we invoice the remaining 70% directly to your plan manager or, for self-managed participants, issue a compliant invoice you can claim through the myplace portal. A standard $12.90 meal costs the participant about $3.87.
- Do you work with plan-managed, self-managed and agency-managed participants?
- We work with plan-managed and self-managed participants Australia-wide. Agency-managed (NDIA-managed) participants generally cannot claim delivered meals directly, so we ask that you confirm with your support coordinator before ordering.
- Can a support coordinator or plan manager set this up on the participant's behalf?
- Yes. Support coordinators, plan managers, family members and carers can all register a participant using the form on this page. We correspond with whichever contact you nominate for billing, and orders can then be placed by anyone the participant authorises.
- Do you deliver NDIS meals in Sydney and other capital cities?
- Yes. We deliver chilled across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart and most regional centres, with next-day delivery to most metro postcodes on your chosen day.
- Are the meals suitable for specific dietary and texture needs?
- Yes. Halal-certified, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, diabetic-friendly and softer-texture options are available across 100+ dishes. Energy, protein, saturated fat, sugars and sodium are printed on every tray.
- What documentation do you provide for NDIS claims?
- Every funded order generates an itemised invoice showing the participant co-contribution, the plan-funded portion, the participant's NDIS number and the service dates — formatted for plan-manager processing and self-managed claiming.
- Is there a minimum order or lock-in contract?
- No lock-in contract and no auto-renewal. Order weekly, fortnightly or occasionally, and pause at any time.
