71 Start notifications—other than for classification type hospital transition

(1) This section applies if: (a) an entity is, because of subitem 5(1) of Schedule 2 to the CTP Act, taken to be registered as a registered provider under paragraph 105(1)(a) of the new Act; and (b) the entity gives a notice (the original notice) under section 30 of the Accountability Principles in relation to a care recipient and a home care service (whether that notice is given before the transition time, or after the transition time in accordance with section 69 of this instrument); and (c) if the original notice was given before the transition time—the care recipient had not, as at the transition time, ceased to be provided with home care through the home care service. (2) The original notice is taken to be a start notification for an individual given to the System Governor and the Commissioner in accordance with Subdivision B of Division 4 of Part 4 of Chapter 4 of the new rules. (3) The start notification is taken: (a) to be given: (i) for an original notice given before the transition time—on the day of the transition time; or (ii) for an original notice given after the transition time—on the day the original notice is given; and (b) to specify the day of the transition time as the start day for the individual for the following: (i) the classification type ongoing for the service group home support; (ii) the classification type short‑term for the service group assistive technology; (iii) the classification type short‑term‑term for the service group home modifications; and (c) to specify the home care service as the service delivery branch through which funded aged care services will be delivered to the individual.

Note: Because of subitem 5(8) of Schedule 2 to the CTP Act, each home care service through which an entity provided care as at immediately before the transition time is taken to be a service delivery branch of the entity for the purposes of the new Act.
