Charging for Home Care Package services
If they can afford to, people receiving government-subsidised home care are expected to help with the cost by paying fees. We changed the way we calculate fees on 1 July 2014. These changes do not apply to people who started home care before that date.
- Fees for people entering Home Care Packages from 1 July 2014
The fees that may apply to people starting home care from July 2014 are the basic daily fee, the income-tested care fee and amounts for additional care and services. - Fees for people who entered Home Care Packages before 1 July 2014
The fees that may apply to people who started home care before July 2014 are the basic daily fee, the income tested fee and amounts for additional care and services.
