Super convenient and the biggest plus is that the food tasted fantastic! Highly recommend giving it a go! Amazing to see more businesses enabling those in the NDIS do more!

I've been using Youfoodz for a while now and I couldn't be more excited that I can get up to 70% covered through my NDIS plan. Youfoodz helps me to eat healthy with heaps of delish options.

I've been getting Youfoodz delivered on and off for years, perfect for those times when life is too busy to eat healthy. The meals are fresh and they have a great value for the price!

Make sure your NDIS plan includes meal preparation and delivery services.
The NDIS covers meal preparation and delivery expenses, but not ingredient costs, which are classified as "day-to-day living expenses" (source: https://www.ndis.gov.au/understanding/supports-funded-ndis/reasonable-and-necessary-supports).
Participants with meal preparation and delivery in their NDIS plans pay 30% for ingredients, while the NDIS covers 70% of the total expenses, including both meal prep and delivery.
As NDIS participants, you enjoy the flexibility of ordering Youfoodz meals without lock-in contracts, allowing you to order whenever it suits you, without any commitments.
Please note that this flexibility is specific to NDIS participants. Typically, Youfoodz operates on a subscription basis for other customers.
Please verify whether your NDIS plan covers meal preparation and delivery or if it provides funding for a support worker to aid in meal preparation. If so, you can utilise your NDIS funding to contribute towards the cost of our meals.
If you require assistance with meal preparation and delivery, but it is not explicitly outlined in your NDIS plan, you can reach out to your Local Area Coordinator (LAC) or Planner directly. They can send an email confirming that core support can be flexibly used for meal preparation and delivery.
If you are a self-managed participant, ordering is easy! To place an order, simply proceed with your selection of meals and pay the full amount upfront for each order.
Upon confirmation, you'll receive an order confirmation email along with an invoice, which you can then use to claim a 70% reimbursement through the NDIS.
For further assistance or information, please reach out to the NDIS directly via phone at 1800 800 110, email at enquiries@ndis.gov.au, or visit their website at www.ndis.gov.au.
You register with NDIS for approval. When you are approved, you can claim back the meal delivery and preparation costs.
While you can claim some of the costs with NDIS, you have to pay 30% of the cost out of pocket. This covers the cost of ingredients.
Register with NDIS and verify your identity by filling out the online form. Once you are registered, you can place an order.
When you use NDIS, it covers 70% of the meal cost. That includes the cost of delivery and meal preparation.
NDIS pays for meal preparation and delivery services. It doesn’t pay for ingredients used in preparation.
Youfoodz delivers to various states in Australia, including NSW, QLD, VIC, ACT and WA.
