Account management
Dosh can support you to manage your care and support funding. This includes all types of self-directed support, for example personal budgets, individual budgets, direct payments, Individual Service Funds (ISF) and personal health budgets.
Self-directed support is the money your Local Authority or another funding group like the NHS gives you to buy your support. As account managers for this money, we will open a managed account for the money, pay for your support and report to the Local Authority or other funding body on the spending.

Who is this for?
We can provide account management for any adult with a learning disability that has some form of self-directed support (for example a direct payment). This works well for people who want to choose their own support but are worried about managing the money. We can also do this for families and care providers who want support around account management. We can also provide account management for people who lack capacity to choose a direct payment. This means we are the ‘suitable person’ and manage the direct payment on their behalf. |
