Support at Home: Budgeting
planned
S
Shiam Ahmed
Who it’s for:
Care Coordinators, Finance Teams, and Providers transitioning to Support at Home from HCPWhat it solves:
Manual planning and fragmented visibility into client budgets, funding types, and participant contributions—especially with multiple funding streams.What’s coming:
- Multi-stream budget tracking: Separate budgets for AT-HM, restorative, and palliative care funding agreements
- Remaining funds visibility: Reflects both confirmed and planned services, including draft/uncompleted bookings
- Participant contribution tracking: Co-payments and contribution breakdowns visible within Visualcare.
- Draft service planning: Plan and adjust future services (duration, frequency, type) before formal rostering
- Exportable budgets: Budget breakdowns embedded in participant statements (per Services Australia format)
- Monthly utilisation tracking: View funding usage percentages per participant and at an organisational level
- Scalable beyond SAH: Foundations will support NDIS and other schemes in future roadmap phases
Why it matters:
Equips providers to confidently plan and track individualised budgets under SAH, reduce errors, and comply with new government reporting requirements.S
