Victorian HACC Transition Transition process

Format for today’s session What we will cover: 1.Transition process – timeline and key dates 2.Funding splits – age split process 3.Mapping to the CHSP 4.Next steps

Timelines for the transition

How will the transition happen? Commonwealth and Victoria are working together: Split of funding and activities, and mapping to CHSP (Dec). Letter of offer for new Health agreements and changes to DHHS Funded Agency Channel (from April). Signed agreements (May-June) and first payments made: ─ Last payment for in June 2016 from DHHS ─ First payments for in July 2016 Dec 2015 April 2016 TodayJuly 2016 Funding splitNew agreementsPayments

Funding splits

Process for unit priced activities Examining 6,000 lines of Victorian HACC service activities for over 400 providers: Three methodologies identified for the funding split. The first is for direct service delivery that is reported to the MDS MDS information to determine the age split for activities. Split identified for each service type Service Agreement Funding and Target Outputs. Percentage split is applied to the unit price to determine split of funding.

Funding splits – a worked example Activity MDS Data 15/16 Target Output 15/16 Unit Price 15/16 $ Total Proposed Split Total $ OP % YP % OPYP Output$ $ Allied Health 60%40% 1000$97.45 $97, $58, $38,980$97,450 Domestic Assistance 80%20% 500$45.00 $22, , $4,500$22,500 Total 1500$119, , $43,480$119,950

Block funded direct service delivery Some activities are direct service delivery but are block funded grants: The second methodology is for direct service delivery that is block funded and may not have MDS outputs. Uses available information to determine the age split Other provider information (reports, etc) MDS information for other similar activities State average. Outputs to be proposed based on unit prices.

Other block funded activities (indirect) Some activities are indirect and are block funded grants: The third methodology is for indirect activities that are block funded and do not have MDS outputs Service System Resourcing Volunteer Coordination etc Uses available information to determine the age split for these activities Where no information available State wide or Service Provider average

Mapping to the CHSP

Mapping services to the CHSP Victorian HACC services will be ‘mapped’ to the CHSP The majority of HACC services directly map. The Commonwealth and Victoria are working together to determine those services where the mapping isn’t so clear. The proposed mapping for your services for older people will be included in your funding split letter. We will seek your confirmation that we have mapped services correctly. In some cases, we may ask for more information so that we can map services to the CHSP (e.g., Assessment).

What the mapping looks like (1) Victorian HACC service typeCHSP sub-programme and service type Community and Home Support sub-programme Allied Health Allied Health & Therapy Services Delivered Meals Meals (at home and centre) Domestic Assistance Domestic assistance Nursing Nursing Services Planned Activity Group – (PAG) Low/Core Social Support - Group (formerly Centre-based day care) Planned Activity Group – (PAG) High Social Support - Group (formerly centre-based day care) Property MaintenanceHome Maintenance Personal Care

What the mapping looks like (2) Victorian HACC service typeCHSP sub-programme and service type Assistance with Care and Housing sub-programme [No identified HACC services] Formerly Assistance with Care and Housing for the Aged Care Relationships and Carer Support sub-programme Respite Flexible, Cottage and Centre-based respite Service System Development sub-programme Volunteer CoordinationService System Development Flexible Service Response (FSR) Service System Development [Note: where services represent direct service delivery they will be mapped to other sub-programmes] Service System Resourcing (SSR) Service System Development [Note: where services represent direct service delivery they will be mapped to other sub-programmes]

Next steps

Transition process – Consultation November consultations planned: Nine consultations across Victoria, including metro and regional centres, ACCO and CALD providers Packs provided today – fact sheets and key information Next stage of consultations in April 2016: Focus on readiness for the CHSP Further information on the funding agreement and programme

Transition process – What you need to do Know your age split: Understand your current funding arrangements and outputs Know your age cohorts and their service usage Consider what you believe to be your funding split What you will receive We will write to you on your funding split and mapping You will have an opportunity to discuss this with us We will write to you before the end of 2015
