How does Aged Care funding and costs work?
Understanding the costs involved in aged care is important. At TriCare, we provide transparent information about basic daily fees and additional charges, ensuring you have a clear understanding of all potential costs.
The government often subsidises aged care costs, making essential care and support services more accessible and affordable for seniors. The exact out-of-pocket expense can vary significantly and is based on personal finances and care requirements and determined by Services Australia.
Funding and costs are structured around the following key components:
- Basic Daily Fee: This fee covers living costs such as meals, power, and laundry. For residential care, it is set at 85% of the single person rate of the basic Age Pension.
- Means-Tested Care Fee: This is an additional contribution towards the cost of care that some people may need to pay, depending on their income and assets.
- Accommodation Payments: This can be a lump sum refundable accommodation deposit (RAD) or a daily accommodation payment (DAP), or a combination of both. You can use our aged care pricing calculator located on each aged care residence page for more information.
There can also be additional fees and charges apply for residences with extra services. Seniors may be able to choose lifestyle extras and hotel-like services.
