Service User and Carers Payment Policy
This policy has been developed in accordance with national guidance – Reward and Recognition: The principles and practice of service user payment and reimbursement in health and social care. (Department of Health - August 2006) and amended following consultation with service user and carer organisations.
This policy sets out a standardised approach to the payment of service user and carer ‘consultants’. The policy provides details of rates of payment based on the type of activity the service user/carer consultant is engaged in.
The policy recognises that there may be variations in the employment status of individual service user/carer consultants, or of groups of service user/carer consultants in different areas and this is taken into account.
The policy also describes the processes by which payments will be made via the Partnership Trust payroll.
