Questions families ask

Which Baptcare home in Melbourne has the lowest room price?

Baptcare - Karana Community: its rooms start at $420k as a refundable lump sum (RAD). Room prices are each operator's published maximum; a home may agree a lower price.

Do I have to pay the room price as a lump sum?

No. Each room has one price, paid as a refundable lump sum (RAD), as a daily payment (DAP), or part of each. From November 2025 a home keeps 2% a year of a lump sum for up to five years.

Is the room price all I pay?

No. The basic daily fee and any means-tested fees are on top. The monthly row in the table adds them for the cheapest room at each home.

How up to date are these prices?
