This quarterly data report on the Home Care Packages Program (HCPP) for July-September 2024 shows 289,582 people had access to home care packages, with 277,794 actively enrolled. The program approved 40,184 new packages that quarter, releasing 32,765 packages at an average of 2,520 per week. However, 76,081 people remained on the National Priority System waiting list for packages at their approved level. Of these, some were in lower-level packages while others had no package assigned. The program operated through 917 approved providers across Australia. The report includes breakdowns by state/territory, HCP level distribution, wait times, and data on First Nations peoples accessing the program, demonstrating continued demand exceeding supply in the subsidised home-based aged care system.
