About the AT-HM scheme data collection
The AT-HM scheme data collection allows transitioned HCP care recipients to access AT-HM funding without a Support Plan Review. This provider-led process is open until February 2026.
Learn more about the AT-HM scheme.
Prepare to collect data
To prepare for collecting data, you can:
- read the guidance material and download the data collection form
- have conversations with your Home Care Package care recipients to understand their assistive technology and home modifications needs
- prepare evidence, such as invoices, quotes or prescriptions, to support the funding needs for each older person
- appoint a coordinator within your organisation to register for the Health Data Portal.
Collecting data
When collecting your data:
- you can organise bulk requests in multiple submissions for AT-HM funding tiers for transitioned HCP care recipients
- each care recipient can only be included in the data collection once
- please submit requests promptly
- submit the data collection form via the Health Data Portal
- attach supporting evidence to the client records in the My Aged Care Service and Support Portal (ensure care partners upload evidence promptly to avoid processing delays).
Note: Attaching supporting evidence is mandatory for collection processes, consistent with requirements for submitting AT-HM evidence (e.g. invoices and prescriptions) for Support Plan Reviews for changing AT-HM funding tiers.
