Payments
Paying your invoice
What you pay for
You pay for the care visits set out in your Care Plan, which we agree with you at a free assessment before care starts. We don't take payment for care online before that assessment.
Care is exempt from VAT, so there is no VAT to add. For what's included and how funding works, see costs and funding.
How invoicing works
- We invoice weekly, a week in advance.
- Invoices are payable within 7 days of the invoice date.
- If your care is paid by your council or the NHS, we invoice them directly. If you have direct payments, we invoice your direct payment account.
Ways to pay
- Bank transfer, our preference.
- Direct Debit.
- Credit or debit card.
- Cheque.
Full payment details are on every invoice.
