What is an ACAT Assessment?

It is an assessment of your care and lifestyle needs which is carried out by a qualified person from the Aged Care Assessment Team, typically in your own home. They will find out what assistance you need, provide information on what level of Government support you can access and provide the ACAT approval for a home care package. All Aged Care provides support for you with this process, such as if language, cultural or other support is needed.

Do organisations need to be an approved provider to deliver subsidised Government funded care?
