In March 2008, the Residential Classification Scale (RCS) was replaced by the Aged Care Funding<br />
Instrument (ACFI), but some residents remained under the RCS in June 2008. These calculations use<br />
both RCS and ACFI as they applied at June 2008. See Box 13.1 in the Aged care services chapter for<br />
more detail on these classifications.<br />
See footnotes to table 13A.2 for detail on regional data classification.<br />
