The Government is throwing it's weight behind aged care reform. 

A ministerial advisory group has been established to review the outdated funding model, which currently costs $2.5billion a year. 

Chief Executive of the Aged Care Association Tracey Martin told Mike Hosking that the government is ready to make progress instead of writing more paperwork. 

'The announcement that has been made recently is the first true action. This is not another review.'
