The ‘Income Tested Fee’ is based on an assessment of your financial situation and is a contribution from the Home Care Package holder towards their funding.
If you are part-pensioner or a self-funded retiree and the government assesses that are required to pay an Income Tested Fee, then you must pay this when you accept your Home Care Package. No Provider is able to waive this fee.
If you have any further questions about the ‘Income Tested Fee’ or whether you would be required to pay it, you can give us a call to explain it in more detail.
