Preview of Star Ratings now available
Residential aged care providers can access their updated Star Ratings via the Government Provider Management System (GPMS).
The preview will be available for two weeks before the Star Ratings are published on the My Aged Care website and made accessible to the public.
Organisation Administrators were emailed on with details on how to access and assign roles in GPMS, including giving access to Star Ratings reviewers.
During the previous quarter, 90% of providers achieved three or more stars. At the other end of the scale, significant concerned was expressed for residents of facilities that received a one-star rating. Data for the current quarter has not yet been released.
