Support at Home cost calculator.
Estimate your care costs based on your classification, pension status and the services you actually want. Clinical services carry no co-payment — their cost is drawn from your package budget, not your pocket.
First — your budget at a glance
Choose your program, then the level from your My Aged Care letter. Then use the full calculator below to see what that budget buys.
Rates current from 1 July 2026 (indexed each July). You can carry up to $1,000 or 10% of a quarterly budget into the next quarter — and your ACAC care partner plans each quarter with you so nothing goes to waste.
Your classification and budget are on your Notice of Decision letter from My Aged Care. For an official personalised estimate, use the My Aged Care fee estimator.
This sets your contribution to Independence and Everyday Living services. Clinical care carries a 0% contribution whatever your income — its full price is drawn from your package budget.
Enter your exact rates from your Services Australia letter:
Rates are set individually by Services Australia from your income and assets assessment. Estimates show $0 until you enter them.
For each service you want, choose how often and how many hours or visits each time — leave anything you don't need at 0. Each row shows what it draws from your package and what you pay, in that cycle.
