Aged care home fee estimator

Welcome to your aged care home fee estimator.

This tool will help you understand the different types of fees that apply for aged care homes (residential aged care) and how much you might have to pay. This does not include any extra services you may negotiate with your provider, which are known as higher everyday living fees. For more information, please visit the aged care home costs and fees page.

To get an estimate, you will need to answer some questions about your personal situation.

You can choose to use the aged care home income and assets checklist to help you complete your estimate.

You can also access video and written guides to help you understand how to use the fee estimator.
