The Federal Government’s Business Improvement Fund (BIF) is aimed at improving provider governance and operations to ensure service continuity and longer-term sustainability through undertaking business improvement activities.  The Business Improvement Fund will support small to medium sized residential aged care providers. Priority will be given to those providers that are facing financial decline which may impact on care to residents and also to providers located in regional, rural and remote locations.

The first round of BIF grants invested over $80m of funds into small to medium providers in 2020 and 2021 and the second round of funding is open from July to December 2021.

Making the grant application process simple and more successful

With all the challenges facing aged care today, it is difficult to find the capacity to understand the process and put together a quality grant application, especially for smaller providers.
