Updates planned for Lumary 20 improve the ability to manage NDIS, CHSP and HCP funding.
NDIS funding
Updates planned for this release will give providers more flexibility to manage funding within and between NDIS service agreements. This includes:
- the ability to start delivering services from an agreement and still make funding management changes before claiming and/or invoicing for services
- easier transfer of service delivered (SD) records between service agreements that have different types of funding management, and
- a new report that makes it easy to see the billing history of a participant. This will make it easier to see the impact of funding management changes.
We’ve also planned improvements to supported independent living (SIL) claiming to meet a recent NDIS compliance change. The Support Delivered To field on the NDIS extract will auto-populate an accurate end date for services with a weekly unit of measure.
CHSP funding
Updates planned for this release improve and simplify the options for CHSP-funded providers who are managing client contributions. This includes:
- adding the ability to create separate SD records to bill the client contribution
- being able to view the client contributions in the financial description of the financial extract
- improved DEX reporting, and
- enhanced functionality to support discounts and the waiving of costs for clients.
HCP funding
For HCP providers, there are planned updates to the automatic process that calculates the daily government transactions, aimed at simplifying financial management. The process will:
- run daily rather than monthly
- display the subsidy, supplements and care reductions separately, and
- add additional details to HCP journal entries.
It will also enable changes to monthly client statements that will align with government best practice recommendations and regulations. These include a new PDF template that will provide additional information and show how the unspent funds have been split into:
- the Commonwealth portion of provider-held funds
- the care recipient’s portion of provider-held funds, and
- the home care account balance.
Update 17/6/2022

Update 10/12/2021
The rollout of Lumary 18 into production environments for all disability providers has been rescheduled to commence on 13 January 2022.
This is due to the NDIA’s recent announcement about pricing changes that will be effective from 1 January 2022. This change to the deployment schedule will allow us to:
- prioritise any work required to address the NDIA’s pricing changes, and
- address issues detected through our internal testing processes and customer user acceptance testing (UAT).
It will also allow for further UAT and internal testing of the package.
As the pricing changes don’t impact Home Care Packages funding, the production release for this functionality will commence today as planned.
