600,000 NDIS claims are made every day without evidence. We built the fix.

Today, Minister Butler confirmed what Kismet has seen in our data every single day.

The NDIA currently has no visibility of evidence for 90% of NDIS claims. That is around 600,000 claims every day without supporting evidence.

In a scheme that now costs $50 billion a year and has been infiltrated by organised crime, that is not a minor gap. It is the central structural problem.

The Minister was direct: the NDIS has none of the seven fundamental building blocks for a high integrity program. And without fixing the payment infrastructure underneath it, no amount of enforcement will close that gap.

What we built

Kismet's digital invoice is live.

It is structured, standardised, and built to Peppol e-invoicing standards, the same trusted digital standard the ATO uses across Australia.

Every claim submitted through our digital invoice is validated automatically before payment. It is checked against the participant's plan, the price guide, and the provider's registration in real time. That means a traceable record of every support delivered. Structured data that can be cross-referenced and audited. Evidence attached to every single claim.

This is what the Minister described today when he talked about enrolling providers in a digital payments system. We built it 18 months ago because we could already see this was where the scheme needed to go.

What the speech means for the sector

The announcements today are significant and wide-ranging. Here is what matters most for providers and participants.

On payments and invoicing: the Government will move to a digital payments system requiring evidence from every provider claim.

On sustainability: average plan values will come down from around $31,000 to $26,000. Participant numbers will reduce from 760,000 to around 600,000 by the end of the decade.

On foundational supports: the Government will work with states to rebuild community-based support systems for people who are not eligible for the NDIS.

Our position

Kismet has been building integrity infrastructure for the NDIS for 18 months. Our digital invoice, our JSC submission, our research partnerships with e61 Institute and Mandala Partners, all of it has been pointed at the same problem the Minister named today.

We process more than 200,000 invoices every month. We run more than 130 disability sector events every year. We have direct visibility into the claiming patterns, provider behaviours, and system weaknesses the Minister described.

We take the integrity of the payment chain seriously. And today's speech confirms that is exactly what this scheme needs.
