Model 2: Assign residential aged care places to consumers - Overall model

19. Overall, what are your views on this proposed model?

Model 2 views
This model would result in a flight of capital from the residential aged care sector. Banks would be significantly less likely to lend to providers particularly in remote and regional areas.

Model 2: Assign residential aged care places to consumers - Key design considerations (consumers)
