The Australian Government’s decision to push back the rollout of the new Aged Care Act to 1 November 2025 has been welcomed by sector leaders who see the delay as necessary breathing room for providers. Peak body Ageing Australia acknowledged that the original 1 July timeline left little time for providers to address unresolved operational requirements and implement key system changes. The extra months now give organisations a chance to prepare more thoroughly—reviewing agreements, updating internal processes, and ensuring technology readiness without compromising care quality.
For small Home Care and NDIS providers in particular, this revised timeline presents a strategic window to adopt better systems and stay ahead of compliance demands. One standout solution is BOUNCE, CareVision’s award-winning care management software designed specifically to support providers through evolving regulations and increasing complexity. Built with the upcoming Support at Home reforms in mind—including co-contribution changes due in November 2025—BOUNCE offers powerful tools for scheduling, reporting, and client engagement, all within one intuitive, cost-effective platform.
Rather than scrambling to retrofit legacy systems, providers using BOUNCE can move forward confidently, knowing their operations are already aligned with what’s coming. The platform helps simplify compliance, streamline workflows, and scale efficiently, all while keeping overheads low.
For providers looking to maximise the benefits of this transition period, now is the ideal time to book a demo and discover how BOUNCE can enhance the delivery of care services.
