Trilogy Care offers two management options for your Home Care Package that allow for more value, choice and flexibility:Self Managed and Self Managed PLUS. Before beginning your Home Care Package journey, it’s important to consider which of our two self-management options best suits your unique circumstances.
What is self-management?
Self-managed Home Care Packages offer significant benefits compared to traditionally managed options, empowering care recipients to:
- Increase their care hours
- Collaboratively create a care plan and budget with a dedicated care partner
- Gain control over how funds are spent
- Select services and prices suited to their lifestyle
Many care recipients prefer a self-managed approach as it allows them to tailor their support services to meet their specific needs and preferences.
What options are available?
Trilogy Care offers both Self Managed and Self Managed PLUS options to cater to all preferences. Each has unique advantages, and it’s helpful to consider these before making a choice. Below is a breakdown of what each option includes.
Self Managed
Self Managed is Trilogy Care’s first tier of Home Care Package support. For 15% of your Home Care Package fee, you’ll receive:
Care management: A dedicated care partner to help create a care plan and budget that can be reviewed as needs evolve
Clinical support: Access to our in-house nursing team for any medical or health concerns
Compliance support: Background checks by our compliance team on service providers to ensure your safety
Package management: Assistance with the financial aspects of your package, including invoices and reimbursements
Portal access: All care recipients have access to the Trilogy Care Portal, allowing you to manage your Home Care Package at any time.
Self Managed PLUS
Self Managed PLUS is Trilogy Care’s second tier of Home Care Package support. It includes all the benefits of the Self Managed tier, along with:
Care coordination: An additional service where a coordinator assists in sourcing and matching support service providers to best suit your needs
What are the prices?
Trilogy Care recognises the importance of your funding in maintaining your independence. Our pricing structure is designed to allow more of your funding to go towards support services.
Self Managed: 15% of the Home Care Package fee
Self Managed PLUS: 26% of the Home Care Package fee
Which option is right for me?
When choosing Trilogy Care as your Home Care Package provider, you’ll need to decide between the Self Managed and Self Managed PLUS service types. The primary difference, apart from cost, is the addition of care coordination services in the Self Managed PLUS tier.
Consider whether care coordination would benefit you. While some care recipients find this service invaluable, others are comfortable finding support providers independently or with assistance from a family member, friend, or representative.
With the Self Managed tier at just a 15% fee, you’ll have more funds to allocate towards services, though with less support in selecting providers. Ultimately, the choice depends on your needs, abilities, and preferences.
At Trilogy Care, we know your needs and preferences may change over time. Self-managing with us means you’ll always have the freedom to adjust your care as needed. Anytime you wish to modify your support services, we’re here to help.
Enjoy self-management with Trilogy Care
At Trilogy Care, we’re committed to helping you remain independent, healthy, and in control of your care. Our two approaches to self-management empower you to control your funding while receiving the support that best meets your needs.
