Self-Funded Home Care in Tasmania

Financial Assistance for Aged Care & Home Care

You can apply for financial hardship assistance through Services Australia. To be eligible, you must meet certain criteria. Services Australia will let you know whether or not your application was successful.

If you are approved for financial hardship assistance, the Australian Government will pay some (or all) of your aged care fees. They will pay these direct to Anglicare on your behalf.

You can call Services Australia’s Aged Care line on 1800 227 475 (Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm) to discuss your situation, ask about your application, or get a printed copy of the form mailed to you.

While your application for hardship assistance is being considered, Anglicare will not collect fees. But if your application is unsuccessful, you may need to back-pay your contribution from this period.
