United Kingdom Care Homes For Older People Market Report 2023: Social Care Charging Reforms - What Does this Mean for Care Home Modernization? - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Care Homes For Older People UK Market Report 33rd Ed" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Care Homes for Older People UK Market Report is indispensable reading for advisors, investors, commissioners, policymakers, and service providers involved in this dynamic and changing market. The Care Homes for Older People completes the series to give anyone with an interest in the care and support of the over 65s a comprehensive market picture not found anywhere else.

The major challenge for the sector on the horizon is 'social care charging reform', in particular, the implementation of Clause 18(3) of the Care Act 2014 and the Fair Cost of Care funding changes. The government's intention is to raise council-paid fees sufficiently to counterbalance the loss of private pay premiums, and so maintain the incentives for care home operators and investors.

But there are concerns that the government will miscalculate. While popular politically, these reforms are likely to be highly disruptive to the care home market. Finding the balance between the state and the individual will be delicate.

When combined with higher interest rates, there may be a negative impact on investor sentiment. Consequently, this could prove detrimental to care home modernization, which has been driven by private-sector investors over the last two decades.

The report also suggests a strategy for 'benefit loss tapering' in the care sector, which could make a real contribution to the social care workforce shortages which are having a knock-on impact on the NHS as well. Further details of this can be found in the report.
