The purpose of the 2023 COVID-19 Aged Care Support Program grant opportunity is to support providers to transition towards managing the costs of COVID-19 outbreaks as part of their business-as-usual arrangements. The Program will reimburse approved aged care providers to maintain preparedness for, and respond to, outbreaks in the 2023 calendar
year for eligible expenditure incurred in managing direct impacts of COVID-19 up to a maximum grant value per  operational place for residential aged care providers or number of home care packages for home care providers.

The objective of the program is to support the provision of safe and quality care for older Australians in their choice of
care through regulatory activities, collaboration with the aged care sector and consumers, as well as capacity building and awareness raising activities.

The intended outcomes of the program are:

  • consumers of Aged Care Services directly impacted by COVID-19, experience safe and quality care; and
  • the financial costs of managing direct impacts of COVID-19 are reduced for eligible Aged Care services

For the Reimbursement Stream, the government will reimburse up to a capped amount based on the number of operational places for residential aged care providers or number of home care packages for home care providers.

This includes:

  • • Residential Aged Care and NATSIFACP services, the maximum grant value has two components: a base funding allocation of $20,000 plus a funding allocation of $2,000 for each operational place.
  • • Home Care services, the maximum grant value has a single component: a funding allocation of $650 per client.
