Planning and allocating funds for aged care services or accommodation for your loved ones can be stressful. Thankfully, there is government assistance available to help ease the financial pressure on aged citizens and their loved ones.
This aged care fee estimator can help you understand the costs of Home Care Packages or a place in an aged care home, allowing you to budget more effectively. Simply add your information to the aged care fee estimator below to get your estimated costs.
Please note that costs generated using the My Aged Care Calculator are estimates only. The exact amount that you will need to pay will depend on your financial situation when you apply for care, so if your situation changes, your fee estimate will also change. Please contact Services Australia for a more accurate cost or to learn more.
Please be aware that if you are applying for services under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) or Short-Term Care, your costs will not be included in this estimate and need to be calculated separately.
