Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This determination sets the daily financial penalty that applies to aged care providers who breach specific requirements under the Aged Care Act.

What it does:

Sets the adjusted subsidy reduction (a penalty amount deducted from government funding) at $10.29 per day
Applies from 1 July 2005
Replaces the previous rate set in Determination No. 13/2004

Who it affects:

Approved aged care providers who fail to meet certain obligations (such as maintaining sufficient high-care places)
The Department of Health (now Department of Health and Aged Care) which applies these reductions when calculating subsidies

Why it matters: This dollar amount determines how much funding an aged care facility loses each day it remains non-compliant with specific regulatory requirements. It acts as a financial incentive for providers to meet their care obligations.
