Refund Policy

Last updated: 2026/01/01

Our Commitment

At Alivio Care Services, we know that you have to trust, have compassion, and be transparent to the loved ones, be it the aging relatives or those living with a disability. Our vision and mission are to give high-quality and person-centred care and make sure that our financial affairs are conducted fairly and in an honest manner.
This Refund Policy discusses our payment, cancellation, and refund arrangements for our NDIS services.

1. Service Agreement

Before services commence, all participants (or their authorised representatives) are required to enter into a Service Agreement with Alivio Care Services.
This agreement details:

  • Payment arrangements and pricing, and
  • Words on cancellations, changes, or refunds.

The signing of the agreement through the agreement between both parties recognizes and accepts these conditions.

2. When a Refund May Be Issued

Refunds may be considered under the following circumstances:

  1. Service Not Delivered
    If a scheduled service is cancelled by Alivio Care Services and cannot be rescheduled, a full refund for the undelivered portion will be provided.
  2. Advance Payment or Overpayment
    If you have made a payment in advance or an overpayment has occurred, we will refund the excess amount once verified.
  3. Cancellation with Notice
    If a participant cancels a service before the required notice period as outlined in the Service Agreement, a full or partial refund may be issued.
  4. Change in Circumstances
    In special situations such as a participant’s change in health, relocation, or NDIS plan adjustments a fair refund will be considered in consultation with the participant or their representative.
