Adult Social Care Contributions Policy 2024 - 14. Paying your assessed contribution

If we have arranged your care at home, we will send you an invoice every four weeks, which tells you how much you need to pay. Payment of the invoice will be due straight away. If you are in residential or nursing care, following your financial assessment, you will receive an initial invoice from the Council. Thereafter, you will pay your provider directly based upon their terms of business. 

If you receive a Direct Payment, you must pay your care contributions into your Direct Payment account. 

Your invoice will show you how much you need to pay. Once you receive your invoice, it should be paid straight away
