About the scheme

The Lifetime Care and Support Scheme is managed by icare. It pays for treatment, rehabilitation and care for people who have been severely injured in a motor accident in NSW.

We’re a no-fault scheme. This means we can provide support regardless of who was at fault in the accident, as long as you meet our eligibility criteria for both your motor accident and your injury.

Severe injuries that may be eligible for the Scheme include:

  • spinal cord injury
  • brain injury
  • amputations
  • burns
  • permanent blindness.
