Choosing the right home care package solution for you
For far too long consumers have been restricted by poor quality service, disadvantaged by fees, unable to access much-needed services, and so much more. It’s no wonder Home Care Package holders are fed up with traditional providers.
Australia’s first self-managed provider, Let’s Get Care knew consumers were sick and tired of these industry norms and were revolutionary in paving the way for a new era. Consumers no longer had to settle for a Provider that didn’t meet their needs.

In June 2020, Let’s Get Care pioneered a part-managed solution through its sister brand Just Home Care Packages, giving consumers even more choice in how they wanted their care managed.
With the final report from the Royal Commission into Aged Care and the release of 80,000 new packages by 2023, it’s important, now more than ever, to ensure you’re getting the most from your Home Care Package.
That’s why it’s best to assess all the available options to find a Provider who’s the perfect fit for you. To help, we’re uncovering the key differences between a selfmanaged or part-managed Home Care Package.
What’s Self-Management:
With self-management, the consumer is responsible for sourcing care and support services they’re happy with -- putting you in control of who enters your home and when.
Self-management is for consumers who want to remain as independent as possible or have the assistance of someone who can self-manage their package for them.
If you self-manage with Let’s Get Care, you pay 13 per cent, that’s it: no set-up fee, no exit fees, and no surcharge for using services of your choice.
What’s Part-Management:
Part-management means that your Care Manager will set up local supports and services specialised to your care needs. This takes the stress out of sourcing suppliers.
Then once it’s all set up, you’re the boss! It’s over to you to coordinate the services and adapt care as your needs change. The bonus is your Care Manager is always there to provide support if needed. Part-Management offers the best of both worlds.
With Just Home Care Packages, this specialised support is an unbeatable low rate of 17 per cent and nothing more. This is unheard of in the industry.
How they’re breaking industry norms:
While Let’s Get Care and Just Home Care Packages offer different solutions to suit your situation, there’s a lot they have in common:
• More choice and control
• Continuity of care
• 24/7 access to your funding balance
• Invoices paid within 3-5 business days
• Care and support at market rates
• Access to Australia’s widest network of suppliers
