Step 1 – Getting an ACAS Assessment
If you are considering a move into Aged Care either for respite or permanent, you will first need a free assessment (commonly known as ACAS).
Step 2 – Understanding Fees
Fees payable by a resident in an Aged Care Facility are regulated by the Commonwealth.
Step 3 – Income & Asset Assessment
Centrelink requires all residents entering a residential aged care facility to lodge an Assets and Income Assessment as soon as possible and prior to entry to the facility, to determine their level of means tested contribution.
