Explanation of payment options | Residents can choose to pay for their accommodation by refundable deposit, a daily payment, or a combination of both. A refundable deposit is paid as a lump sum amount. A daily payment accrues daily and is paid periodically, for example monthly. A combination payment includes both a partial lump sum and daily payments |
The accommodation costs above are the maximum daily amounts this aged care home charges. Everyone who moves into an aged care home agrees a room price before moving in.
To find out how much you may be asked to contribute, use the fee estimator and check if you need to complete a means assessment. The means assessment determines if you will have to pay the agreed room price or if the Australian Government will pay for part or all of your accommodation costs Services Australia will advise you if you are required to make an accommodation payment.
In addition to the accommodation payment, you will be asked to pay a basic daily fee and may be asked to pay a means tested care fee. The fee estimator will work out how much this might be based on your financial situation.
