IMPORTANT: Changes to ACFI subsidy rates

Please note that in addition to the daily ACFI subsidy rates released on 01 July 2018, the Quality Care Fund will be paid as an additional daily ACFI subsidy amount for the period 20 September 2018 to 30 June 2019. This will increase all ACFI rates and the maximum possible daily subsidy amount to $217.77 and assist providers to transition to new quality standards.
