Abstract

Securing good care for more people: options for reform proposes new, fairer funding arrangements for adult social care, a review of the current settlement for older people and a long-term staged approach to reform based on political consensus. While demonstrating that the cost of the social care system is set to double over the next 15 years with no improvement in outcomes, this report proposes a revised version of the ‘partnership model’ as the fairest way of funding social care in the future, updating the recommendations of the review of social care by Sir Derek Wanless published in 2006. This would see the state guaranteeing to pay 50 per cent of everyone’s care costs and ‘matched funding’ for individual contributions to encourage people to save for old age.
