CHSP (Commonwealth Home Support Programme)

CHSP is a Commonwealth-funded entry-level home support programme for older Australians needing low-level assistance to remain independent. CHSP services include domestic help, personal care, meals, transport, and social support.

CHSP providers report service delivery through the Data Exchange (DEX) on a quarterly basis. Block-funding arrangements mean budgets sit at the service-type level rather than per-client, with reporting at the client level.

Aged care software that supports CHSP needs DEX-ready exports, service-type budget tracking, and the ability to operate alongside HCP on the same client record.
