Data include high care residential, low care residential, EACH packages and CACPs.
In March 2008, the Residential Classification Scale (RCS) was replaced by the Aged Care Funding
Instrument (ACFI), but some residents remained under the RCS in June 2008. These calculations use
both RCS and ACFI as they applied at June 2008. See Box 13.1 in the Aged care services chapter for
more detail on these classifications.
(c) Includes Multipurpose Services and National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Flexible Aged Care
Program places attributed as aged care recipients, in all years except 2007.
(d) Population data for 2008 are calculated on a different basis to years prior to 2008. See table 13A.2 for
notes and sources of population data.
