Preparing for Support at Home

Published: 7 October 2025

If you’re getting a Home Care Package, your aged care provider can help you understand how much you may need to contribute under Support at Home.

From 1 October, most people already receiving home care will be able to discuss an estimate of their Support at Home contributions with their provider.

The estimate is based on income and asset details we have on file as of 26 September 2025. Updating your details won’t change your estimate.

From 1 November, your actual contribution rate under Support at Home will be confirmed. We’ll send you a letter with the details or request more information if we need it.
