The Department of Health, Disability and Ageing’s Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) helps older Australians access entry-level support services to live independently and safely at home.
This page contains links to documents specific to the CHSP program. Providers of other programs should refer to the Data Exchange Protocols page for relevant information.
The Data Exchange Protocols for the Commonwealth Home Support Program is a specific support manual which provides practical information for managers and front-line staff to integrate data definitions and requirements into existing administrative practices.
PLEASE NOTE: It is important CHSP Providers adhere to these Protocols because they contain the specific privacy notices in relation to the collection and reporting of clients’ My Aged Care IDs.
The Program Specific Guidance for the Commonwealth Home Support Program provides information on the data expected for the program.
