What's New with Support at ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù?

Support at ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù Transition Delay

The Australian Government has designed the Support at ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù Program to improve support provided to older Australians who are able and wanting to remain living at home independently. Although previously set to replace the ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù Care Package (HCP) program from 1 July, the Australian Government has delayed this until 1 November 2025.

This delay was implemented to allow providers added time to prepare for the level of care required to transition clients and their families into the new program. For clients, nothing has changed right now. You will continue to receive the same level of support, and we will keep you informed as we approach the new rollout date.

What does this mean for your ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù Care Package?

If you are currently on a ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù Care Package, the ‘no worse off’ principle will apply to you. From 1 November, you will be automatically transitioned to the new program, maintaining your current funding, plus any unspent funds. Following this transition, you will be reassessed to determine the appropriate funding for your care under Support at ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù
