Changes to the Northcott My Service Agreement

Northcott is making some changes to the My Service Agreement (MSA). The changes come into effect on 1 July 2023.

The changes will make it easier for customers to start accessing services quickly when they are signing up for a new service. Customers will also be able to continue receiving services without interruption when the NDIS changes its prices or when their MSA expires and needs to be renewed.

The MSA includes the terms and conditions for the services that customers receive from Northcott. It’s important that existing and new customers understand the changes.
