Adding or modifying an ACH
ACH identifiers are issued by PACOP and are unique to your Aged care home. Your ACH identifier is intrinsically linked to how data is submitted and processed by PACOP. If you wish to create a new facility, please first contact PACOP at pacop-data@uow.edu.au.
Failure to contact PACOP and ensure the ACH identifier has been issued correctly could result in any data entered under the new code not being able to be submitted to PACOP and you may lose any data that has been entered.
