  • Unit Costing Tools Available

    Carrie Hayter Consulting has developed Unit costing tools for CHSP providers.

    We held a session for CHSP Providers on the 26th of July and will be holding another on August 23. These sessions have reached capacity. If you would like to be added to a waitlist, please contact CHSPSectorSupport@cotaqld.org.au

    The Department of Health is changing how it pays CHSP service providers. Instead of paying upfront, providers will be paid in arrears. If your unit costs differ from the National Unit Prices outlined in the CHSP Payment in Arrears and Unit Pricing factsheet and your 2022-2023 Extension contract, it is recommended that you speak with your FAMs.

    The tools help you to:

    • understand service unit costs
    • calculate the full cost of service delivery
    • confirm if your organisation can deliver a contracted service at the offered unit price
    • ensure your business model is viable and sustainable.

    The tools include:

    • How-to video – watch it to explain how to use the materials
    • Workbook – work through topics, do activities, review case studies
    • Spreadsheet – input your data to calculate service costs using built-in formulas.
