Auditor-General's Report

In reply to Mr COWDREY (Colton) (12 November 2024).

The Hon. N.F. COOK (Hurtle Vale—Minister for Human Services, Minister for Seniors and Ageing Well): I have been advised:

The total value of invoices linked to self-managed or plan-managed services from 1 October 2023 (date of transition to plan-based payments) to 30 June 2024 was $6.5 million. Of this, $1.3 million remained unpaid as at 5 November 2024. This is made up of 380 invoices owed by 26 debtors.

The follow-up process for invoices outstanding is managed by the Shared Services SA Accounts Receivable team for invoices issued that are up to the 90 days old. The Department of Human Services (DHS) manages debts that are older than 90 days.

This work is undertaken in the context of NDIS-related disability services delivered by DHS worth more than $100 million per annum.
