Ivy Care Connect · Financial assessment

Service user financial threshold assessment

Enter declared capital, income and care setting. The check shows which charging band the service user falls into and routes the referral straight to the responsible local authority financial assessment team.

At or below £14,250

Capital fully disregarded. Any contribution is assessed from income alone — referral raised.

£14,250 to £23,250

Tariff income of £1 per week per £250 of capital above the lower limit applies — referral raised.

Above £23,250

Usually self-funding. The check signposts deferred payments and 12-week property disregard instead.
