The government will use your means assessment to determine what you will pay for your accommodation. If the government identifies that you require financial support, they will determine what, if any contribution you are required to make towards your accommodation costs. If you are not supported, you will be required to pay the published room price. There are a number of ways in which you may choose to pay for your accommodation:
- As a lump sum, called a Refundable Accommodation Deposit (RAD)
- A daily payment, called a Daily Accommodation Payment (DAP) (indexed twice per year) or
- Combination of refundable deposit and daily payment
- Part lump sum with the daily payment drawn down from the lump sum paid
The same payment options are available to supported residents in how they pay for their accommodation contribution.
Daily Accommodation Payments are indexed twice per year in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and an annual retention amount of 2% will be deducted from refundable deposits (RAD/RAC) for up to 5 years.
Higher Everyday Living Fee (HELF)
Residents may agree to enter into a Higher Everyday Living Agreement. The Higher Everyday Living options available at your RFBI Village will be provided to you on entry. You can take up HELF services at any time during your stay and have an option to cancel when the agreement is renewed each year.

History
In 1988, local Masons approached RFBI with a view to establishing a local Masonic Care Village. In 1989 a local committee was formed and, along with the RFBI, commenced work with on-site preparations, plans and construction.
In 1990 the first 30 retirement living units, together with a village hall, were completed and officially opened by Matt Singleton, Member for Coffs Harbour. The original nine-bed residential care village was officially opened by the Rt. Wor. Bro Frank M Jeffree OAM, PDG&M, in 1991. Four years later, it was extended by a further nine beds.
In 2001 20 more units were added and the village hall was extended to cater for the increase in residents. Late 2002 saw the completion of a new 61-bed residential care village. This was officially opened in 2003 by the Honourable Julie Bishop, then Minister for Ageing
