Purchaser
Valuing Care’s Purchaser enables commissioners to record, analyse and control all their complex packages of care in one place
Overview
By combining individual case records with Valuing Care’s models, commissioners can easily:
Purchase a new placement in any care home in the country knowing they are receiving value for money
Understand overall profitability of an existing placement.
Measure the sustainability of specific cases and analyse their underlying cost. Inflate placements individually based on their underlying profitability and cost.
The software enables practitioners to specify individual needs, including the shared care, individual hours and therapies and then calculate the associated model price for a placement anywhere in England, Scotland and Wales.
Support and account management
Support at Valuing Care goes beyond the platform.
Alongside responsive day-to-day support, we work with you on uplift pressures, provider submissions, and market communications, helping to reduce internal workload.
Each customer has a dedicated account manager as a consistent point of contact.
