Milton Keynes Council is committed to supporting and enabling those with eligible needs to have greater control over their care and support. As a result, the Council is looking to develop its support to individuals wanting to take up Direct Payments and is considering procuring a service that will deliver a fully brokered Care & Support Plan.

In the interest of stimulating the market and encouraging participation and innovation from providers, Milton Keynes Council is holding a Market Engagement Event with interested organisations.

On 21st January 2016

Once this Plan is approved, those people who have a Direct Payment would be entitled to receive from the Provider any of the following services that they require to help them best utilize & retain that Direct Payment:

A Direct Payment Set Up Service – To complete and authorise all required legal documentation.
A Direct Payment Ongoing Support Service – That would act as an initial single point of contact for all queries or concerns regarding the operation of a person’s Direct Payment funded care and support.
Employment Information & Advice Services – For people interested in employing a Personal Assistant.
An Employment Support Service (including a Payroll function) - For people who go on to employ a Personal Assistant.
A Support with Direct Payment Paperwork Service – Giving people assistance completing the paperwork required by the Council regarding a Direct Payment.
A Holding Account Service – Whereby the Provider would make all payments to Personal Assistants, agencies and other providers and complete all the necessary paperwork to administer the Direct Payment on someone’s behalf.
