SAH - Package Types

The function of Package Types will largely remain the same. They are used to identify current funding sources of a client within the software to which appointments are attached. Package Types are different to Package Schedules:

• Package Types is the list of funding sources that the Business uses
• Package Schedules attach one or more Package Types to a client to use

Creating Support At Home Package Types

For Support at Home, these Package Types will be directly linked to one of the following SAH Budget Types:

• Quarterly Client Budget
• Case Management Budget
• Home Modifications Budget
• Assistive Technology Budget
• Restorative Care Budget
• End of Life Budget

Within TurnPoint we recommend the following settings be applied to all new package types (click here to learn how to add package types):

• Statements enabled = Yes
• Billing Type = Charge to Package

And for the Funding Type, we recommend the following settings:

Suggested Package Type Name	Funding Type
SAH Level 1	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 2	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 3	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 4	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 5	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 6	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 7	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Level 8	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH HCP Transitioned Level 1	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH HCP Transitioned Level 2	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH HCP Transitioned Level 3	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH HCP Transitioned Level 4	SAH Quarterly Client Budget
SAH Assistive Technology	SAH Assistive Technology
SAH Home Modifications	SAH Home Modifications
SAH Case Management	SAH Case Management
SAH Restorative Care	SAH Restorative Care
SAH End of Life	SAH End of Life

Please note that whilst Case Management exists as its own funding type - to make life easy TurnPoint has integrated Case Management as part of SAH Quarterly Client and as such does not need its own package schedule

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I repurpose my existing HCP 1-4 Package Types for the Transitioned Packages under SAH?
  
  Some Providers are intending on keeping their existing HCP Level 1-4 Package Types and are just updating the name and funding type. - If you are doing this please do not change until after your October 2025 Claim
  
  
• What about HCP Grandfathered Clients? Don't we need a funding type for them?
  
  These do not need to be recorded at the Package Level (please see the SAH Manual for definition). The Main difference with Grandfathered clients is their Co-Contributions will be capped to the same level as their ITF in September 2024. This information will be communicated to you the same as all other SAH Clients and stored within the Co-Contributions module in TurnPoint. It will also be automatically determined by Services Australia in each claim.
  You can still capture this information in client's profile for your reporting purpose(image below),
  
  
• How do I know if a client is a HCP Transitioned Care Participant?
  
  All previous home care package recipients are ‘transitioned HCP care participants’, with a subset having grandfathered provisions applied
