ACFI Funding Instrument and Funding Model
The ACFI consists of twelve care need questions. Diagnostic information about mental and behavioural disorders and other medical conditions is also collected. Scores from each question and diagnostic information about mental and behavioural disorders are used to categorise residents as having low, medium or high care needs in each of the following care domains:
  • Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) 
  • Behaviour
  • Complex Health Care.
The funding model uses the scores in each of these three domains to allocate subsidies to the residential aged care facility.
