# Reporting Capability Matrix

Registered residential aged care providers must report across several government systems under the Aged Care Act 2024. Maica supports these obligations to different degrees: some through a direct integration with Services Australia, some by providing a reportable data extract that reduces manual effort, and some not at all where the required data is not held in Maica.

This article sets out, for each obligation, which system it is submitted through and what Maica provides. It is the starting point for the rest of this section, which documents each supported capability in detail. It is written for administrators.

## The reporting systems

Provider reporting operates across five government systems. Maica's role varies for each.

| System                     | What it covers                                                                        | Maica's role                                                        |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Services Australia B2G** | Monthly subsidy claims and RAD/RAC balance reporting                                  | Direct API integration                                              |
| **GPMS**                   | Quarterly Financial Report, quality indicators, 24/7 RN coverage, provider operations | Data extract or calculation for some components; no integration     |
| **ACFR Portal**            | Annual Prudential Compliance Statement                                                | Custom data export for the auditor                                  |
| **ACQSC SIRS Portal**      | Serious incident reporting                                                            | Incident management and notification preparation; manual submission |
| **Local / offline**        | Offline beds and similar facility data                                                | Out of scope                                                        |

## What Maica provides for each obligation

The table below summarises each obligation and whether Maica provides a direct integration, a reportable output, or no capability.

{% hint style="info" %}
Where Maica provides a reportable output rather than an integration, the figures still have to be entered into the relevant portal by the provider. The benefit is that the data is aggregated in one place, removing the need to assemble it from separate systems.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The accommodation balance data model is in place, but the automated monthly submission to Services Australia could not be confirmed in the current build. See [Accommodation balance reporting](broken://pages/4f44271aa9814f2cd423bd0c88319ce4f857aac3) for the detail and the confirmation that is needed.
