Webinar – Greater financial transparency

Join our panel of experts who will explore the resources available, including the new Dollar for Care feature on the My Aged Care ‘find a provider’ tool.

To make informed choices about their aged care, older people must be able to compare different services. Credible, transparent data on what providers are spending on things like care, food and wages is key.

Panellists for this webinar, hosted by Dianne Weller, include:

• Craig Gear, CEO, Older Persons Advocacy Network (OPAN)
• Jess Evans, Assistant Secretary Market Intelligence, Department of Health and Aged Care
