Digitising The Process Of Financial Assessments For Care
First successfully launched at Kirklees Council in January 2017, Bettercare has since been deployed by several other Local Authorities across the country.
BetterCare Financial Assessment is tailored to your organisational charging policy to ensure one single end-to-end financial assessment process and complete accuracy. This differs from the national light-touch short calculation approach offered by other suppliers where a financial assessment still needs to be completed by the local authority.
The technology frees up resources to allocate to the most vulnerable and complex cases, ensuring they get the attention and assistance they need. This means that the majority of people self-serve, and those that can’t do not fall through the net.
Benefits and efficiencies realised by Kirklees Council to date include 98% less home visits required and failed care packages reduced by 50%.
