The aim of this study was to explore the choice and control that people with a psychosocial disability (disability related to consequences of mental ill-health) experience as they engaged with the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and to understand aspects that impeded their choice and control.NDIS is an Australian, personalised funding, insurance scheme designed to provide supports that enable individuals living with disability to live an 'ordinary' contributing life.This lived-experience-led, qualitative study employed constructivist grounded theory methods.Twenty people were interviewed in-depth.Findings evidenced the poor experiences of choice and control people had on the Scheme.Choice and control were impeded by systems and processes as well as failure to accommodate for challenges associated with mental ill-health.Introduction of the 'psychosocial recovery framework' offers hope of improved experiences of choice and control, but it needs to be accompanied by cultural change across the NDIS service system. POINTS OF INTEREST Many factors impeded opportunities for choice and control for people experiencing disability associated with mental illness when engaging with the Australian personalised budget scheme for people with disabilities. These factors existed throughout people's 'journey' on the Scheme; from the time people begin to apply for access right through to the stage where they were living with their personalised plan. Processes and practices of the Scheme sometimes made things worse rather than better for people experiencing disability associated with mental illness
