Adult Social Care Contributions Policy 2024 - 12. Cost of support – the assessed contribution

Your assessed contribution will be based on the annual cost of your support plan agreed with your Social care practitioner. 

Contributions will not exceed the costs set out in the current support plan. Where there are significant variations between support plan costs and actual services delivered, an adjustment will be applied – this called a variation. 

Adults will not be charged more than the amount determined by their financial assessment or the actual cost of their care. 

Contributions are payable from the date care services commence.
