OVERVIEW

Why PwC?

We partner with our clients to deliver better care and support to older Australians.

We work with our clients to strategically navigate the changing landscape in aged care, not only to make them successful today, but also to pave the path for long term, sustainable success. Our ambition is to turn challenges into opportunities and opportunities into realised value, both for the organisations we work with and for our ultimate customer, the ageing Australian.

We are a team of over 100 health specialists working full time in Health in Australia.

  • We work shoulder to shoulder with our clients on diverse projects to achieve lasting change.
  • We advise and provide support across the health continuum to payers, providers and suppliers.
  • Our team consists of a combination of highly experienced clinicians and management consultants specialising in Healthcare.
  • Aged Care is one of our five priority areas and we work to improve the outcome for the industry and for ageing Australians.

Why we are different

  • Collaborative Impact: We think and work holistically, not only in the organisation, but also in the industry and the community as a whole to achieve the highest impact for ageing Australians and the organisations that care for and support them.
  • Making Change Stick: We understand and value the impact of people and work collaboratively to change the hearts and minds of everyone involved to make sure change is realised and the value is long-lasting.
  • Global Expertise: Our extensive relationships allow us to bring the best people to our clients by leveraging our global community and our strong ties to the industry and the decision makers in Australia.

Our value offerings

Revenue optimisation

  • We know that the highest priority in an aged care facility is to provide high quality care to the residents. Revenue enables this care and we work with our clients to optimise the funding they receive.
  • We work with our clients to bridge this gap in understanding so that each facility receives the funding they deserve. We typically achieve 10-20% uplift in subsidy improving care for thousands of residents.


Strategy and Policy Advice

  • We assist our clients to understand and respond to changes in the industry such as deregulation, the competitive landscape and customer demand.
  • Strategy Development - Developing a long term competitive advantage.
  • Policy Advice & Support - Providing insight to policy makers and industry players on local and global policies; most recently focus has been on how to respond and adapt to the outputs from the productivity commission’s report.

Performance improvement

We provide holistic and integrated services in a wide range of areas such as:

  • Workforce Management & Planning - Making the most of your workforce
  • Operational Effectiveness - Creating more with less by eliminating waste and using enabling processes and systems
  • Procurement & Supply Chain - Delivering cost savings and increased service levels in your supporting services
  • Modelling, Funding & Efficiencies - Helping our clients plan for the future


Integration and care coordination

  • We work collaboratively with the institutions and the policy makers to develop innovative and effective solutions to care integration and coordination across primary care, acute care, community care and residential aged care.
  • We foresee a time when care collaboration may stretch even further, integrating all care and support for ageing Australians, including insurance companies, pension providers and home providers. We work with our clients to take these from ideas to reality.


Integrated advice

In addition to our Aged Care team, we draw upon the broader PwC practice to provide our clients with advice in all areas of business: areas

  • Deals - We support and advise our clients on Mergers and Acquisitions to make sure the deal will add value.
  • Post-Merger Integration (PMI) - The hard work starts when the deal has closed; we work with our clients to ensure that the value is realised.
  • Corporate Restructuring and Divestments - We help our clients obtain optimal corporate structures and divest assets where appropriate.
  • Personal Wealth Management & Protection - We provide advice to owners and residents on how to manage and invest their wealth.
  • Specialist tax advice - We have a highly skilled tax team that can ensure that you optimise your tax position.
