Working with you to make care budgets efficient…
We know – because funders and commissioners have told us – that direct payments to people who need support might seem to offer the choice they need, but can lead to significant difficulties. We’ve seen families unable to manage large budgets and struggle to maintain consistent care. Families who have told us managing direct payments is like trying to run a full-time business. And when the money is being spent, who is auditing the delivery of care?
All of the complex issues involved in personal budgets not only create significant workloads for funders to manage, but also impact on the long term outcomes for those who need support. Resulting – in the most serious of cases – in additional costs to health and social services. Alocura is here to take that pressure off your organisation.
Alocura ensures high quality, continuous care, while also creating efficiencies for funders. Using our market-leading, state-of-the-art administrative system designed specifically for the delivery of personal budgets, we have a hugely successful track record working with individuals, their families, care companies and funding organisations to deliver complex and long-term care via third party managed budgets.
We deliver personalised services, ensuring choice, control and quality outcomes. Our financial management of a budget, including payroll, statements and real-time audits – has so many benefits; everyone has an up to date balance, can forecast and track spend, and ensure that consistent high quality care can be paid for.

“By re-connecting individuals with their communities and matching them with PAs, they were able to develop their self-esteem and confidence, and become independent in self-managing their health conditions, significantly reducing the amount of time spent in hospital.”

“Without her personal budget being managed in this way, Natalie would have ended up in residential care, I have no doubts about that.”
