Adult social care income from client contributions (11359) Metric type
- Help text
- Adult social care income from client contributions. Client contributions includes: income for supported residents in private residential and nursing homes where the client made a contribution (this may include estimates where the CASSR pays the homes concerned on a net basis).
For residential homes run by your CASSR, residents client contributions, contributions by their relatives, and payments by full-cost paying residents should all be shown under client contribution.
Third party top-up payments (contributions from a third party, usually a relative, to enable a client to occupy a more expensive place than the CASSR is prepared to pay for) should be excluded, even if the CASSR pays the full cost and reclaims the top-up from the third party.
In the case of Personal Budgets (whether delivered through a Managed Budget or Direct Payment), the total monies to be used for the purchase of services should be shown under expenditure and the service users contributions should be shown in the income: client contributions column even if the user pays the service provider direct. Note that expenditure on direct payments must be recorded in the Provision by Others column and not under Own Provision.
Income received as a result of Deferred Payment Agreements should be captured in this section as with any income from Client Contributions.
As a result of the Zero Based Review (ZBR), there have been a number of changes to the national data collections for adult social care since the 2013-14 reporting year. The changes that have an impact on the Personal Social Services: Expenditure and Unit Costs publication are the replacement of the old return (PSS-EX1) with the Adult Social Care Finance Return (ASC-FR) collection in 2014-15 and the introduction of the Equalities and Classifications Framework (EQ-CL), which has resulted in changes to some of the data collected as part of this process. Due to changes in the composition of social care funding and expenditure over time, caution should be exercised when considering long-term trends.
Any comparison using this data from 2020/21 and 2021/22 must take into account the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on both activity numbers and spending. The differing scale of cases around the country, when the impacts occurred, and financial support provided will also affect any comparison between authorities. This makes any form of comparative analysis much more complicated and potentially misleading.
