What does Trilogy Care charge in fees?

Trilogy Care's self-coordination fee is taken as a percentage of your SAH package, significantly lower than the coordination and admin loadings a full-service provider applies on top of every worker hour. The fee is disclosed in your service agreement before you sign anything, and the saving figures shown across this site are computed after the Trilogy Care fee is applied.

What happens after I call?

A specialist confirms your suburb, your SAH level, and which services you use, then walks you through the saving in plain numbers. No obligation. If you decide to switch, we handle the transfer of your existing care arrangements. Your workers usually stay the same. If you don't decide, you don't hear from us again.

Do I keep my existing workers if I switch?

Usually, yes. Most workers welcome the change because self-managed providers pay them a higher hourly rate. We confirm with each worker as part of the transfer process and only proceed once you have agreed.

What about my current care plan?

We can keep your existing care plan as-is, or update it to match your current needs. If you transfer mid-package, your funding balance and any approved supports move with you.

Will my current provider charge an exit fee?

Under Support at Home rules, providers can only recover their reasonable costs to close your file. They cannot charge a separate exit fee. Most exits take effect within two weeks of your written notice.

Cleaning prices in Australia

Compare cleaning hourly rates across Australia

Self-managed cleaning in Australia costs about $66 an hour through Support at Home, against about $134 an hour on a full-service package. That is the same care delivered by the same kind of worker, with the coordination markup stripped out. The table below sets every rate side by side so you can see the gap for yourself.

Self-management is one way for you to run your care, your worker and your funding. Having someone else coordinate it for you as a full service is another. This page sets out the hourly rates for both, so the choice is yours.
