Dr Stephen Judd, who was the CEO of HammondCare for more than 25 years, has been appointed to the role at the independent Government agency.
Stephen was appointed by the Minister for Health and Aged Care Mark Butler, for his substantial expertise and knowledge in the field of aged care.
In his time at Christian Not For Profit HammondCare, Stephen grew the organisation from having 250 clients and annual revenue of $8 million to caring for more than 25,000 clients and having revenue of more than $400 million.
Stephen was also the inaugural Fellow, Council on the Ageing until the end of 2022.
“Lots to read and learn but I am strapping myself in!” he posted on social media.
The IHACPA will provide aged care costing and pricing advice to the Government from 1 July 2023 – a change that is being closely watched in the sector.
