Calculating the daily payment

Everyone pays the Basic Daily Fee $47.15 pd (85% of basic age pension)

Extra services are optional $10 pd to $100+pd

Supported Residents

Common Misconception: “If I don’t have any money, I won’t get in!”

Assets below $45,500 and Income below $25,118.60 = Fully Support Resident.

Once assets or income exceed the threshold we use the following formulae to determine the amount the resident can pay.

50c per dollar above $25,118.60 plus17.5% of assets between $45,500 - $155,823.30

Govt will pay the difference between the resident contribution and up to $53.04 as supplement.

Supported ResidentsJack and Mary are full pensioners – Jack is needing residential care

Assets = House $600,000 (exempt asset by Mary)Cash at Bank $180,000Contents $ 15,000

Income is less than $24,650.20 = $0 (illness separated rate)

Assets$97,500 - $45,500 = $52,000 X 17.5% = $9,125

$9,125 + $0 = $9,125/364

= $25.00 p.d Daily Accommodation Contribution (DAC) Or RAC $136,398

Supported ResidentsBefore Jack moves into residential care:

Financial Strategies

• Aged care is more than just a nursing home or hostel

• More living options are developing – the financial and legal arrangements will differ – advice will be important

• Home Care packages are subject to a formal income test

• Residential Care fees generally cost more post 1/7/14

• Supported residents pay a lower entry cost

• Costs are:

• entry (RAD,DAP);

• ongoing BDF $47.15 + Care contribution + Extra Services

• Care contribution. Your assets and income determine how much you pay toward your care

• Its complicated

• Financial advice makes a significant difference
