With Virtual Wallet, PCG holds the funds on behalf of direct payment recipients in a client bank account. Either direct payment recipients themselves, the local authority, or appointed third party, then have access to a ‘virtual’ budget so they can choose, order and commission care and support as required with PCG processing all payments. The software provided enables robust financial monitoring and complete transparency for all parties on budget spend. It also enables individuals to continue to have choice and control over commissioned care, without the hassle of having to make payments themselves.
- the system prevents overspend and will alert the local authority if a provider increases their rates
for providers – an easy process for all involved and significantly reduces care management workload by not having to deal with debt issues
