Funding extension for the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP)

The department will be extending existing CHSP service providers for a further year from 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024. This will help you plan for your future resource, service delivery and staffing needs. Find out what you need to do, who is eligible, and how we will keep you informed.

What do service providers need to do?

Only existing CHSP service providers will be eligible for this funding extension.

We will renew funding until 30 June 2024, so you can continue existing services. This aligns with the Australian Government’s announcement of a return to a start date of 1 July 2024 for a new in-home aged care program.

What arrangements are in place?

Details will be provided in November 2022 on the parameters of the extension, through a detailed fact sheet available under CHSP Resources.

Keeping providers informed

CHSP providers can stay up to date via the aged care newsletters and webinars for the aged care sector. We also encourage CHSP service providers to subscribe to our email updates
