There are two ways to pay for your aged care support on Hireup

Dirk, a Hireup Aged Care client, is sitting at a dinning room table with his support worker, Brenda. Dirk has short, grey hair and is wearing a knitted jumper, while Brenda is wearing a white blouse. They're drinking coffee and are flipping through an illustrated newspaper.

Support at Home funding

If you have approved Support at Home funding, your provider can pay Hireup directly. We don’t charge extra fees, though your provider may have some out-of-pocket costs.

Pay privately

If you have immediate support needs, you can pay privately your support. If you are approved for Support at Home funding in the future, you can maintain the same support arrangements, and update your funding type through Hireup.

Hireup cannot accept Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) funding. You can find the government's specific list of CHSP providers on MyAgedCare.
