As an NDIS participant let me just say it is way too easy for providers, regardless of their registration status, to commit fraud and exploit participants. It happened to me once where a provider charged my plan for services they didn't deliver. Reported it with the regulator but it was such a small amount that it just falls down the priority list. It's an open secret how incapable the ndis regulator is and how few teeth it has. The ndis is essentially a free market system being used to distribute resources to vulnerable people without a functioning regulator. This particular incident also could have been prevented if the ndia provided a form of public service based case management like it was originally supposed to.
