Personal Health Budgets
Saving money for ICBs and Local Authorities

25, 855 Children and Young People had a Personal Health Budget in Q2 23/24 and these figures continue to increase on a quarterly basis. 

 

 

 

Notional budgets are the predominant type of PHB used by the NHS and Local Authorities. 

 

 


 

The NHS spends in excess of a £1/4 billion on Children's Continuing Care each year, which the majority is managed via Personal Health Budgets (Notional, 3rd Party & Direct Payments).  

 

 

Providing continuing healthcare for children in the community is becoming more difficult for the NHS on a daily basis

Which is why Thrive Care Solutions are committed to work in partnership with the NHS & Local Authorities to help ease this burden

Providing families more control of their family's care by supporting them to manage their own Direct Payment PHB.
