Have you recently received your Home Care Package? Congratulations!
We’ve put together some simple steps to explain what’s next:

1. Choose a Home Care Package Provider.
Once you’ve received your letter from My Aged Care with your Referral Code you will be required to choose a Home Care Package Provider to host your Package.
Want to find the right Provider for your needs?

2. Give your Referral Code to the Provider of your choice.
Prior to your Sign-up, you will give the Provider of your choice Your Referral Code. This is a unique number (1- number) that you receive when you are assigned a Home Care Package. This code allows the Provider of your choice to access your ACAT/ACAS assessment which contains important details about your situation and your unique requirements. This code is also important as your chosen Provider will use it in order to trigger your Home Care Package funding on your behalf.

3. Organise a time to complete your sign up with your chosen Provider.
Once you’ve chosen your Provider, you can set up a time to complete your sign up with them. During your sign up, you will discuss your care needs, what type of services you would like your funding to be used for and complete your sign-up documentation.

4. Choose which care and services you require.
Your Care Manager will help you find the best care and services for your unique care needs. The idea is to find the care and support services that will keep you safe, happy and healthy at home. The types of services you receive will be dependent on your care requirements and outlined in your Care Plan and Individualised Budget that you will create with your chosen Home Care Package Provider.

5. Start receiving the care and services you need at home.
Now you’re all set, it’s time to receive the care and services you need.
