Our OTs complete a holistic telehealth assessment individualised to each Participant's needs. During the Participant's assessment period the OT reviews supporting documentation and administers andinterprets standardised assessments.

They may communicate with others involved the Participants’ care with consent.

The OT then begins the report writing stage and provides a comprehensive report to the participant.

Our assessments are conducted remotely, using the secure Google Meet video conferencing platform.

Prior to your appointment, you'll receive a Google Meet invitation via email with a link to your telehealth assessment. To connect with your OT, simply click the link at the time of your assessment.

You do not need to download any additional software; the platform is accessible and works on most devices.

OT Assessed offers services to NDIS participants and privately paying clients.

Please note that we do not currently offer services to agency-managed participants—our services are available only to self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants. But we hope to expand soon!

We proudly offer our telehealth services Australia-wide.

Because of advanced telehealth technology, OT Assessed is accessible nationwide, Participants can access OT from the comfort of their own home.

An OT Functional Capacity Assessment (FCA) assesses a Participant’s ability to perform activities of daily living, identifies the support required to meet their goals, and provides clear funding recommendations that helps maximise use of funds and informs NDIS funding decisions.

An FCA may be required if a participants NDIS plan specifically requests this assessment.

An FCA becomes necessary when the current level of funded support no longer meets the participant's disability-related needs, for annual plan reviews, early depletion of funds, or to support home and living funding requests.

While an FCA is not mandatory for transitioning into the NDIS, it can be used to provide valuable evidence of substantially reduced functional capacity to support this application and recommend funding requirements.

An FCA may be requested by an individual seeking a detailed overview of their functioning and capacity for daily living or by an individual seeking professional guidance on the supports available to help them maximise independence.

OT Assessed bills NDIS participants through the Capacity Building Supports and Improved Daily Living section of their NDIS plan in accordance with the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits.
