What is means testing and why does it matter?
Means testing calculates your contribution to care costs based on income and assets. It doesn't affect whether you receive care — only what you pay. The family home is not counted for home care, and is exempt from residential care means testing if a spouse, dependent child, or eligible carer continues to live there.
