Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Determination sets the daily adjusted subsidy reduction amount for aged care at $11.78, effective from 1 July 2012.

What this means:

When the government calculates how much subsidy (financial assistance) to pay aged care homes for residential care, they apply a deduction called an 'adjusted subsidy reduction'
This document simply updates that deduction amount from the previous year to $11.78 per day
It replaces the 2011 determination, which had a different amount

Who it affects:

Aged care providers (nursing homes/residential aged care facilities) — the amount affects how much government funding they receive
Aged care residents — indirectly, as subsidy levels affect the funding available for their care

This is an annual administrative update required under the Aged Care Act 1997 to keep payment calculations current.
