Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What it does: This determination fixes the daily dollar amount that the government deducts from residential aged care subsidies when a resident has sufficient means to contribute toward their care costs.

The amount: $11.37 per day (taking effect from 1 July 2010).

Who it affects:

Aged care providers — they receive subsidies at this reduced rate for residents who are required to make contributions
Aged care residents — those with higher incomes or assets may have this amount factored into their daily care fees

Why it matters: This is a routine annual update that replaces the previous financial year's rate. It ensures the subsidy reduction amount stays current under the Aged Care Act 1997. The instrument operates automatically—providers do not need to take action other than applying the updated rate in their funding calculations.
