Fee Uplift - Home Care Framework
PDF 65 KBProviders appointed to the County Council's home care framework have not received a rate increase since April 2014, due to the intention to undertake a procurement exercise to establish a new framework with effect from 2016.
A review of budgetary constraints and market conditions indicates that rate increases should be applied in accordance with existing contract terms and conditions, taking into account the requirements of the Care Act 2014 and the statutory guidance issued thereunder.
It is therefore proposed that a rate increase should be implemented as set out in the report.
This is deemed to be a Key Decision and the provisions of Standing Order No. 25 have been complied with.
