Personal care contribution provider readiness checklist

6. Resolve and monitor performance

Review processes often to find errors and improvements.

You must actively monitor claims, payments and statements for errors and have clear processes in place to identify, escalate and resolve discrepancies quickly. 

You can do this by:

  1. Monitoring billing, claiming and reporting for accuracy
  2. Monitoring demand and service delivery
  3. Resolving outstanding issues and close out the transition
  4. Conducting a post‑implementation review.

6.1 Monitor billing, claiming and reporting for accuracy

  • Review billing and claiming outputs during the first quarter after go-live. 
  • Confirm no contributions are applied for personal care services delivered from 1 October. 
  • Confirm pre-1 October services are still being billed correctly. Identify and correct any system or process errors promptly. 
  • Escalate persistent errors to your ICT or software vendor.

6.2 Monitor demand and service delivery

  • Track changes in personal care service utilisation across your participant base.
  • Monitor workforce capacity and rostering in response to demand changes.
  • Identify participants who now want to increase personal care and initiate care plan reviews. 
  • Report demand and capacity issues to your operational leadership and proactively address.

6.3 Resolve outstanding issues and close out the transition

  • Identify and resolve any outstanding issues from the transition period. 
  • Confirm all participant records, care plans, budgets and service agreements have been updated. 

6.4 Conduct a post implementation review to identify lessons learned

  • Your post‑implementation review should cover:
  • system performance
  • participant experience
  • workforce impacts
  • lessons learned for future reforms.
