The supplement recognises that care for pensioners may involve specific costs, and ensures providers receive a predictable, uniform rate across the sector."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-pensioner-supplement-determination-2013-no-1","history":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-pensioner-supplement-determination-2013-no-1/history","analysis":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-pensioner-supplement-determination-2013-no-1/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-pensioner-supplement-determination-2013-no-1/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-pensioner-supplement-determination-2013-no-1/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/aged-care-residential-care-subsidy-amount-of-pensioner-supplement-determination-2013-no-1/documents"}}
