NDIS money is not the same thing as healthy service coverage. This view shows whether MELBOURNE, VIC sits inside a state market with thin provider supply, captured payment flows, and too few local disability-focused or community-controlled alternatives. This matters here because MELBOURNE, VIC already shows $5.2M in justice-related funding moving through local entities.
