As part of the NDIA’s efforts to combat fraud, they are strengthening their identity verification process. Starting in mid-2025, the current Provider Digital Access (PRODA) system will be replaced by the Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM), which is a verification service managed by the Australian Tax Office (ATO). All providers who access NDIS portals will need to create an Australian Government-managed identity, known as myID, in order to log in to RAM. |
