Australian National Aged Care Classification (AN-ACC) Calculator

 

The Aged Care Decisions AN-ACC Calculator is a web-based app, accessible via the ACD Provider Portal, that calculates the variable funding provided for a potential resident, based on the classification of their care needs.

This is an initiative that has been designed and developed in cooperation with, and with the assistance of, the Lincoln Centre for Research on Ageing at LaTrobe University. In particular, the Aged Care Decisions AN-ACC Calculator uses clinical data inputs that are likely to be known and observed by carers and family members to produce an AN-ACC class estimate that can be built on by providers.

This calculator is available for ALL providers – not just those who receive aged care placement introductions with Aged Care Decisions

It can calculate and save an AN-ACC estimate for ANY potential resident – not just those referred by Aged Care Decisions
