This FOI release contains costing analysis for Chronic Disease Management (CDM) framework changes proposed in the 2023-24 budget. The documents present comparative data on actual versus proposed service item numbers and counts, with detailed volume projections and financial estimates. A key recommendation addresses the deletion of Temporary Care Arrangements (TCAs), with analysis estimating impacts on service utilization and costs across multiple item categories. The disclosure includes assumptions about population eligibility (50% noted), service volumes, and benefit payments, with specific figures showing millions in projected benefits across various service categories (ranging from approximately $1 million to $563 million). Supporting data tables appear largely redacted under section 47E(d), limiting visibility of underlying assumptions and evidence for the costing projections.
