 I forgot to say. Jim had a letter from the Aged Care Finance Assessment team to say that we do not, after all, owe the $32000 arrears that has been hanging over our heads since last October or so. They do want us to pay an additional $11.50 a day on top of the basic day rate, which I suspect may well be wrong. We have had several letters saying that we only need to pay the basic day rate (and don't forget about the $32000 arrears). If they are right, at least they haven't back dated the $11.50 to July 2022 when he went in. If they are wrong, they'll notice the next time they do an assessment. And I just cannot bring myself to ring them again to query it. After all - what if they reinstate the $32000 arrears?
