Timelines for transition
Slide 3
How will the transition happen?
Commonwealth and Victoria are working together:
• Split of funding and activities, and mapping to CHSP (Dec).
• Letter of offer for new Health agreements and changes to DHHS Funded Agency Channel (from April).
• Signed agreements (May-June) and first payments made:
─ Last payment for 2015-16 in June 2016 from DHHS
─ First payments for 2016-17 in July 2016

Funding splits
Slide 5
Process for unit priced activities
Examining 6,000 lines of Victorian HACC service activities for over 400 providers:
• Three methodologies identified for the funding split.
• The first is for direct service delivery that is reported to the MDS.
• 2014-15 MDS information to determine the age split for activities.
• Split identified for each service type.
• 2015-16 Service Agreement Funding and Target Outputs.
• Percentage split is applied to the unit price to determine split of funding

Funding splits – a worked example (picture)
Slide 7
Block funded direct service delivery
Some activities are direct service delivery but are block funded grants:
• The second methodology is for direct service delivery that is block funded and may not have MDS outputs.
• Uses available information to determine the age split
• Other provider information (reports, etc)
• MDS information for other similar activities
• State average.
• Outputs to be proposed based on unit prices.
Slide 8
Other block funded activities (indirect)
Some activities are indirect and are block funded grants:
• The third methodology is for indirect activities that are block funded and do not have MDS outputs
• Service System Resourcing
• Volunteer Coordination etc
• Uses available information to determine the age split for these activities
• Where no information available
• State wide or Service Provider average

Mapping to the CHSP
Slide 10
Mapping services to the CHSP
Victorian HACC services will be ‘mapped’ to the CHSP
• The majority of HACC services directly map.
• The Commonwealth and Victoria are working together to determine those services where the mapping isn’t so clear.
• The proposed mapping for your services for older people will be included in your funding split letter. We will seek your confirmation that we have mapped services correctly.
• In some cases, we may ask for more information so that we can map services to the CHSP (e.g., Assessment).

Transition process – Consultation
November consultations planned:
• Nine consultations across Victoria, including metro and regional centres, ACCO and CALD providers
• Packs provided today – fact sheets and key information
Next stage of consultations in April 2016:
• Focus on readiness for the CHSP
• Further information on the funding agreement and programme
Slide 15
Transition process – What you need to do
Know your age split:
• Understand your current funding arrangements and outputs
• Know your age cohorts and their service usage
• Consider what you believe to be your funding split
What you will receive
• We will write to you on your funding split and mapping
• You will have an opportunity to discuss this with us
We will write to you before the end of 2015
