Residential Care

Care recipients need at least 2 assessments to work out their government home care package.

We collect financial details of care recipients to complete a Residential Aged Care means assessment. We then work out how much a care recipient pays for their care services.

Read about the various aged care fees and charges.

The Aged Care Fee Estimator on the My Aged Care website can help care recipients estimate the fees and charges they need to pay for aged care.

We review aged care fees for care recipients every 3 months.

The annual and lifetime caps applied to means-tested residential care fees.

You can view and print your monthly payment statements with details of the Australian Government subsidy for your clients who receive residential care.
