Coordinators often send one referral to several providers. Families call whoever picks up. Here's what the rules, and some research, say.

NDIS, 2026

Support coordinators have 4 business days to accept or decline a request for service. After that, it's shared with another provider.

“A lot of VitalCore's referrals land around 11pm, for whatever reason. Kinfold catches them, replies straight away and turns them into clients while we're asleep.”

“I was busy, and I don't pick up private numbers. It was a discharge planner from Sunshine Coast University Hospital, and I only knew because Kinfold caught it, logged it and tracked it. That call turned into a major referral relationship.”
