Contracts and schedules

South Gloucestershire's Supporting People Team currently makes a payment to providers under three different types of contract. As a provider you may have one or more of these types of contract.

The type of contract you have will determine the documentation you receive.
All providers will receive every four weeks:

  • A remittance advice note to accompany each payment. This is a receipt to notify you of the money being paid into your bank account
  • A provider subsidy summary showing the total of any fixed or subsidy payments

Block subsidy (chargeable)

Tenant subsidy schedules will be sent giving a four-weekly breakdown of each service user subsidy. If you have notified Supporting People of changes you will also receive a 'provider adjustment schedule' outlining backdated amounts.

Block gross (chargeable)

Providers will receive thirteen equal four-weekly payments relating to the annual contract price. If the total amount is not divisible equally by 13 the final payment will include any remaining balance. For any service commencing part-way through the year the annual contract price will be pro-rata accordingly.

Block gross (non-chargeable)

Providers will receive thirteen equal four-weekly payments relating to the annual contract price. If the total amount is not divisible equally by 13 the final payment will include any remaining balance. For any service commencing part-way through the year the annual contract price will be pro-rata accordingly.
