The flat rate covers typical costs, while the safety net protects providers when a resident has complex or expensive oxygen needs."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-oxygen-supplement-determination-2010-no-1","history":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-oxygen-supplement-determination-2010-no-1/history","analysis":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-oxygen-supplement-determination-2010-no-1/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-oxygen-supplement-determination-2010-no-1/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-oxygen-supplement-determination-2010-no-1/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-oxygen-supplement-determination-2010-no-1/documents"}}
