Allied Health NDIS Audit Checklist: worksheet
NDIS Practice Standards and Quality Indicators. Edition held: Rules Schedules 1 to 8, Compilation No. 6 (F2026C00527) and Quality Indicators Guidelines Compilation No. 3 (F2026C00528), in force 1 July 2026; checked current on 6 October 2026 (Federal Register: both compilations are the latest version on 6 October 2026).
Under review, not in force: The NDIS Commission's review of the Practice Standards (a proposed quality framework and changes to the standards and how they are assessed) is still being considered; nothing from it is in force.

When the practice is also audited by certification: The obligations on this page stay for the practice's therapeutic supports. One certification audit assesses them (certification satisfies a verification requirement, Rules s 23), and Core module: Human resources covers the same ground, so one set of evidence can serve both.
