Benefits of the strategy for government
Our work under the Aged Care Data and Digital Strategy will support government by:
- providing accurate, real-time data to manage and monitor aged care services
- improving data collection to help guide funding, programs and policies
- ensuring provider and government systems are compatible, to reduce administrative tasks and improve reporting accuracy
- connecting care sectors, including health, disability and veterans’ care.
