Frequently asked questions
What does it mean to be listed on the My Aged Care provider register?
It means the organisation appears on the official public list. A listing shows what the provider is registered for and where. It is not a recommendation or a rating of quality.
Does a listing mean a provider has room to start now?
No. A register listing does not show whether a provider has capacity, what it charges or whether it suits your needs. Providers who have joined SolDirectory confirm each week whether they are taking new people. For anyone else, ask the provider directly.
How do I check a provider's registration?
Search the official register at My Aged Care “Find a provider” (https://www.myagedcare.gov.au/find-a-provider), and ask the provider for its registration details and how its workers are screened before you agree to anything.
