Pricing

Prices and what you'd pay

Sensible Care - QLD’s full prices from My Aged Care. Your Support at Home budget pays for services, and you pay a share called a contribution.

What you pay

These are Sensible Care - QLD’s full prices. With Support at Home, the government pays part of the cost and you pay a share, called a contribution. Services Australia confirms your rates and your provider confirms the amount charged.

You pay nothing towards clinical care such as nursing and personal care. For other services your share is between 5% and 80%, depending on the service and your pension or income.

For example, 2 hours of general house cleaning a week costs $178 at this provider’s weekday price. A full pensioner would pay about $31.15 of that, and a self-funded retiree without a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card about $142.40.

Available funding, the lifetime cap and financial hardship can change what you pay. Lower “no worse off” rates apply if, on 12 September 2024, you were receiving a Home Care Package, were on the National Priority System or had been assessed as eligible. Use Add on any service to build a weekly estimate of the charges and your share.

We had to quickly find a new provider after Empowered Aging unexpectedly closed and Sam and the team at Sensible Care were amazing and made everything so easy. They’re always friendly and easy to deal with and nothing is too much trouble. This is our third provider since mum went on HCP and definitely the best one. Cant recommend them enough, so grateful to have them in our team.

Thank you Sam and the team for making our transition from previous provider to Sensible Care so easy and effortless. Our previous provider was outstanding and only because they closed we had to find a new provider. Sam and Sensible Care are just as easy to deal with. We self manage our Aged Care package, and it is really easy. Communication is great, emails are answered promptly and efficiently. From the accounting side, all of our invoices are paid promptly. Sam and Sensible Care have shown that we are not just a number in their books, they take the time to keep in touch and treat us with respect. Keep up the great work guys and thank you.

I'm enjoying having Sensible Care as my Aged Care Provider. Such a compassionate difference to my previous experience. My invoices are paid promptly and I'm able to discuss and resolve any issues I may be experiencing. I'm self managing and appreciate the assistance I've been given to navigate through the system as a relative 'newbie'. Thank you Sensible Care
