NDIS Approved Products and Bed Mats: What Participants Need to Know

NDIS Approved Products

Understanding what qualifies as NDIS approved products and bed mats can be confusing for participants, carers, and support coordinators. Mediply Plus is here to simplify the process.

As a registered NDIS supplier in Australia, we help participants access the right consumables within their plan budget, with confidence that the products meet quality standards.

What Are NDIS Approved Products?

NDIS approved products and bed mats refer to items that are eligible for funding under a participant's NDIS plan. While the NDIS does not maintain a single approved product list, items must be reasonable and necessary to be funded.

Products commonly approved under the Consumables category include continence aids, skin care items, PPE, and protective bedding such as bed mats.

Criteria for NDIS Product Approval

For a product to be considered for NDIS funding, it generally must meet the following criteria:

  1. Directly related to the participant's disability

  2. Necessary for daily functioning or health maintenance

  3. Value for money compared to alternatives

  4. Consistent with the participant's NDIS goals

  5. Supported by evidence from a healthcare professional if required

Bed Mats: An Essential NDIS Consumable

Bed mats are protective coverings placed on mattresses to absorb moisture and prevent skin breakdown. They are a key component of continence management for many NDIS participants.

Choosing the right bed mat involves considering absorbency levels, material, and whether a disposable or reusable option is more suitable for the participant's lifestyle.

Types of Bed Mats Available

  • Disposable underpads — single-use, convenient for travel or home use

  • Reusable bed mats — washable, cost-effective for long-term use

  • Quilted bed mats — added comfort layer for extended bed rest

  • Waterproof bed mats — full surface protection for heavy incontinence

  • Incontinence draw sheets — designed for easy repositioning

The easiest way for participants to access NDIS approved products and bed mats is through a registered NDIS supplier like Mediply Plus. Here's how to get started:
