There are 23 recommendations of the Final Report of the Aged Care Taskforce, which is advocating for increased contributions from those not on the Age Pension. 

The main points are: 

2. Continue the significant role for government funding of aged care services. A specific tax or levy to fund aged care is not recommended. 

3. It is appropriate older people make a fair co-contribution to the cost of their aged care based on their means. 

5. Make aged care co-contributions fairer, simpler and more transparent so people can understand the costs they will incur if they access aged care. 

8. Introduce Support at Home participant co-contributions that vary based on the type of service accessed. 

10. Funding for daily living needs to cover the full cost of providing these services. It is recommended this be composed of the Basic Daily Fee and a supplement. 

14. Review the Accommodation Supplement, including improving incentives to meet the accommodation design principles 

16. Establish a fee-for-service model for Support at Home that ensures participants only pay a co‑contribution for services received. 

17. Consider the appropriateness of the current remoteness classification system.
