DVA's Veterans' Home Care (VHC) and Community Nursing programs, 2007-08
Unit NSW Vic Qld WA SA Tas ACT NT Aust
DVA has Deed of Agreement arrangements with each State and Territory to ensure that all veterans, as members of the wider community, are able to continue to
access the full range of Home and Community Care services.
(j)
Average expense per client figures are for core VHC services only, that is they exclude Respite Services (in-home, emergency and residential) as these are paid under
separate appropriations.

Individual service totals may not add to the all services total because veterans can receive more than one nursing service or can move between service types.
DVA Community Nursing services are provided under a casemix model using a 28-day claiming cycle, with clients classified into care categories based on care
interventions. As a substantial proportion of clients receive services for well under 12 months, the average hours per 28-day claim period more accurately reflects
average service levels received by clients.
Estimated, as some data on hours provided are not available.
Total Program Expense figures are as at 24 September 2008. Figures are subject to significant lag and may therefore be subject to revision. These figures may also
differ slightly from the figures published in the DVA annual report for this reason.
