Improving your Home Care Package letters
Services Australia has made it easier to get your Home Care Package letters.
Home Care Package letters give you information on aged care fees, any changes and what you need to do.
Understanding what fees you may have to pay and how much the government will contribute is important and can help you plan for your care needs. Having all this information upfront will help you make the right choices for your budget.
You can get Home Care Package letters online by linking your myGov to your Centrelink account. You'll then get an SMS or email when a new letter is uploaded to your account.
Services Australia have recently simplified Home Care Package letters to make them easier to read and understand.

Let's change aged care, together
Every Australian should feel confident about accessing high quality and safe aged care, when and where they need it.
The changes mean Older people will have greater choice and control, services that respect and meet their needs, and support to stay independent as they age.
