Contract Price Reviews

Valuing Care are the recognised market leader in the review of contract prices for specialist care services for people with disabilities and mental ill health.

Valuing Care have completed over 7000 contract price reviews for Councils and NHS groups across the UK. 

Our contract review service provides a detailed review of service costs, identifying contracts which do not represent value for money, providing Commissioners with the evidence to challenge costs and renegotiate contact prices.

 

What’s included in the Contract Review Service

Cost Audit – Robust and systematic approach to engage care providers to obtain a detailed breakdown of costs and the service levels which form the basis of the contract price.

Benchmarking – Valuing Care have a proven range of cost models that calculate fair prices for services, reflecting local staffing costs and property values. This facilitates benchmarking of providers reported costs to identify unusually high expenditure and potential cost efficiencies.

Reporting – Clear and concise reports produced by our professional accountants are designed to provide Commissioners with the evidence to challenge costs and renegotiate contact prices.

What our customers think

Valuing Care has successfully delivered cost reductions in cases where we had previously been unable to make any progress and bring national perspective and experience to our negotiations with national provider organisations.
