Built by people who have actually done this

Careva is part of Care Business Group, founded in 2016 and now supporting over 2,000 participants nationally across Therapy Care, Assist Disability Services, and Spic N Span. We have navigated NDIS registration, compliance, and scaling from the inside — not as consultants, but as operators. That experience is what we bring to every operator we work with.

Is Careva Right For Me?

Careva provides the framework, support, and infrastructure to help Independent Support Workers operate and grow within a compliant NDIS environment using our NDIS registration to help you provide services to your participants.

Who Careva Is Built For

  • Independent Support Workers who want to deliver services under an established, registered provider structure, without having to build or hold their own registration.
  • You want more control over your time, workload, and how you deliver care
  • You’re ready to move away from rigid systems or traditional employment models
  • You want to focus on participants, not admin burden and compliance
  • If you are doing meaningful work and need the right structure around you to keep doing it, Careva was built for you.

Who Careva Is Not Built For

  • Careva does not help providers obtain their own NDIS registration. If you are looking to become a registered provider in your own right, the NDIS Commission's registration pathway is the right starting point for you.
  • Careva is also not right for you if you are looking for a traditional employment model with fixed hours and no autonomy, a franchise structure that dictates how you operate, or a quick fix rather than a sustainable long-term operating structure.

FAQs

Careva is an NDIS-focused business builder designed to help purpose-led providers grow smarter and more sustainably. We offer a tiered range of support options for everyone from independent disability support workers to small-medium NDIS providers and those seeking strategic partnerships. As part of the Care Business Group, we draw on proven systems and deep sector experience to make the business of care easier.

At Careva, our work is guided by:

Purpose First, Always: We partner with people who care deeply about participants and their communities.

Clarity Over Chaos: We simplify the complexity of running an NDIS business.

Community is the Strategy: Every system supports real people, not just processes.

Integrity in All Things: Ethical, sustainable business growth is non-negotiable.

Back-End Brilliance: Operational excellence is the foundation for better care.

Empower Through Education: We share our insights so providers can thrive with confidence.

No. Careva is not a registration consultancy and we do not help providers obtain their own registration. What we offer is access to operate under Careva's existing registered provider structure. That is a fundamentally different thing. If you are looking to become a registered provider in your own right, the NDIS Commission's registration pathway is where to start.

Careva is part of Care Business Group. The NDIS registrations under which Careva operators deliver services are held by Therapy Care and Assist Disability Services, both registered Care Business Group entities. Careva manages the contractor relationships, compliance infrastructure, and administration. The registration holders maintain the registrations, process NDIS claims, and handle regulatory compliance.

We offer support tailored to three types of providers:

1. Independent Disability Support Workers (Level 1)

For sole traders or clinicians using another provider’s registration

Access essential admin and NDIS compliance support to work confidently

2. Small-to-Medium NDIS Businesses (Level 2)

Providers with a small team who want to focus on delivering services

Careva takes over back-end operations: HR, rostering, marketing, payroll, compliance, and more

3. Businesses Seeking Strategic Partnerships (Level 3)

Providers ready to scale nationally and partner for growth

Careva offers mentorship, shared systems, and can take an equity stake to create sustainable success

There are no upfront fees to get started. Careva operates on a percentage of NDIS billing, meaning our success is directly tied to yours. Our service fees range from 20% down to 10%, depending on your needs, with reductions available for each successful referral you bring to Careva.

Careva Credits is our referral rewards program. Here's how it works: For every independent contractor (IC) you successfully refer, your proportion of the NDIS Price Guide Fees related to the work you do, lifts by 2.5%. Therefore, by referring four, your proportion of the NDIS Price Guide is 90%. Terms & Conditions do apply. For example, your referrals must be "active".

Mandatory registration is expanding. From 1 July 2026, SIL and platform providers must be registered. The 2026-27 Federal Budget has confirmed that mandatory registration will extend further to cover personal care and daily living supports, rolling out from July 2027 through to end of 2030. Careva gives independent practitioners an immediate pathway to operate under a registered structure without going through that process alone.

You will be onboarded by our Customer Success team, who guide you through all required paperwork and issue your contract. You will then be set up in industry-leading systems with access to best-practice tools and standard operating procedures. Once operating, Careva manages compliance, registration maintenance, invoicing, and payments on your behalf. You focus on your participants.

Unlike other corporate solutions or franchises, Careva is built for the NDIS sector. Our team lives and breathes participant outcomes, compliance, and sustainability. We don’t impose rigid systems — we co-create scalable solutions with each provider.
