Social care costs ‘need capping’

By Nick Triggle Health correspondent, BBC News

Patient and carer Social care is currently means-tested

Social care costs in England should be capped so people do not face losing their assets, a review is to say.

Council-funded home help and care home places for the elderly and adults with disabilities are currently only offered to those with under £23,250 of assets.

The independent Dilnot report, being published later, will say the threshold should rise to £100,000 and suggest a £35,000 cap on costs would be “fair”.

But ministers have indicated the level of any cap will need to be discussed.

Insurance

Last year the coalition government asked economist Andrew Dilnot to look into how the system of funding social care in England could be changed amid concerns it was getting harder for people to get access to state support.

The ageing population and squeeze on councils budgets have led councils to impose stricter criteria on who can get help.

Care across the UK

Many councils in England have stopped providing support to those with low and moderate needs
The Dilnot Commission was set up in July 2010 to establish how to achieve an affordable care system for adults in England
Wales and Northern Ireland both have means-tested systems which are similar to England
Scotland provides free personal care, but in recent years has tightened the eligibility criteria for the same reasons as councils in England

It means while 1.8m are getting state funding, another 1m-plus either have to pay for support themselves or go without.

Instead of this system, Mr Dilnot’s commission will recommend a partnership between the state and individual whereby the high costs are covered by the government – one in 10 people aged over 65 faces care costs of more than £100,000 over their lifetime.

But the individual should be liable for the first tranche of care with a cap in costs set at between £25,000 and £50,000, the report will say. It will suggest £35,000 as the ideal figure.

The hope is that with the state paying for the high-cost cases, the insurance industry would be encouraged to develop polices which would cover any care costs below the cap.

‘Positive response’

Means-testing should remain so that the poorest would not have to pay, the commission will recommend, but it will say the threshold should be raised for those going into residential care.

At the moment, people with assets, including the value of their house, of over £23,250 pay for all their care.

The commission will say this should be increased to £100,000 to better reflect the rise in property value seen over the past 20 years.

The report will also call for an end to the ever-tightening restrictions being placed on access. Instead, it will say that there should be a national standard so everyone has the same access no matter where they live.

However, an overhaul on this scale is likely to cost the government more.

It has been suggested an extra £2bn will be needed immediately – on top of the £14bn that is already spent by councils – although this would increase in time with the ageing population.

The Treasury is known to have doubts whether more money can be found in the current financial climate.

Speaking before the publication of the report, Health Secretary Andrew Lansley said ministers were likely to give it a “positive response” and “treat it as the basis for engagement”.

However, he said the level of any cap, how it would paid for and the threshold for means testing were among a “range of issues that need to be resolved”.

Michelle Mitchell, of Age UK, said action was long overdue: “Social care is at crisis point. Vulnerable people are going without care and that means their conditions are worsening and they are ending up in hospital and costing the government more. We cannot go on as we are doing.”

Age UK was one of 26 charities which wrote to the Sunday Telegraph calling for politicians to hold cross-party talks on the issue and “not let reform fall off the table for another generation”.

Any overhaul of the system would take about five years to introduce.

Home> Money> Investing in the health care you invest in health care | Posted on: 1 December 2009 | Comments: 0 |]]> In 3 of the last 4 rebounds market since 1982, equity gains slowed to a single digit pace in the 2nd year after the first rally game of dividend stocks have a special appeal because it is a tempting alternative. CDs that pay virtually no interest and long-term bonds that pay a bit more, but have let the mercy of inflation. Established companies value in stable industries tend to have better long-term investment proved. Before cutting S & P Pfizer (PFE) ratings of “AA” from “AAA” on October 16, 2009, there were 5 companies with AAA ratings: Automated Data Processing (ADP), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), ExxonMobil (XOM) and Microsoft (MSFT) . In other words, were 2 of 5 healthcare companies. Majors health care I covered health insurance stocks such as UnitedHealth Group (UNH) in my 27 October in his article. The following are major healthcare companies in other sub-sectors in health care, through yield By:.. Name (Symbol) Industry P / E P / E yield LILLY ELI CO (LLY) Drug Manu N / A 8 5.2% BRISTOL-MYERS SQ (BMY) Drug Manu 13 12 4.8% GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Drug Manu . 13 12 4.6% MERCK CO INC (MRK) Drug Manu. 10 10 4.2% Sanofi-Aventis SA (SNY) Drug Manu. N / A 8 3.6% PFIZER INC (PFE) Drug Manu. 15 8 3.4% JOHNSON AND JOHNS (JNJ) Drug Manu. 14 13 3.1% NOVARTIS AG ADS (NVS) Drug Manu. 17 13 3.1% ABBOTT LAB (ABT) Drug Manu. 15 13 2.9% Alcon Inc (ACL) medical instruments 23 20 2.6% AstraZeneca PLC ADS (AZN) Drug Manu. 9 8 2.5% BAXTER INTL INC (BAX) medical instruments 15 13 1.9% MEDTRONIC INC (MDT) Medical equipment 25 12 1 , 9% NOVO NORDISK AS (NVO) Drug Manu. 18 16 1.1% Teva Pharmaceutical (TEVA) Drug Manu. 48 12 0.9% Amgen Inc.

Some of them have single-digit forward P / E ratio. could H1N1 vaccine makers such as Novartis (NVS) Sanofi-Aventis (SNY) and AstraZeneca (AZN) benefit. On 25 November, said U.S. health authorities, but that it is a worrying pattern of serious bacterial infections in swine flu patients, mostly in young adults, is usually not vulnerable to them. In addition to pending health care reform, a common problem facing Big Pharma is that patents will expire between 2010 and 2012. However, the industry sought to bring the growth through acquisitions, including Blockbuster offers fuel. pharmaceutical giants are also looking increasing number of biotech companies, their pipelines. Biotech biotechnology probably the best measure offers the innovation of the healthcare industry. Its P / E ratio is low, too. For example, s Amgen (AMGN) is “P / E only 12th Although my core holdings boring blue-chip dividend stocks are, I also assigned a very small part of my portfolio in promising small caps. China Biologic Products (CBPO.OB) is one of the leading plasma-based biopharmaceutical company in China. In the first nine months of 2009 its total revenue million, up 142% compared to 2008. He has millions in cash and low debt. However, traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, the share price was extremely volatile. It also has derivative liabilities, which could affect potentially their future income.

It was this short growing volatility bias that creates so much pain in the current economic crisis, according to CFA Digest, November 2009 edition. Buying a 40% drop is not a sure bet for investors. The markets may fall further and often have no trouble reaching the lower 75% below the peak levels. The most recent examples are 1989′s Japan’s Nikkei index, 2000, the NASDAQ, 2007 China market and for 2008, oil / gas prices. So, if Investors think the environment will remain volatile, they should be for shares with a lower susceptibility to check volatility. Even if they make less profit for you on the way up, they lose much less on the way back down. With its forward P / E of 12 and average beta of 0.69, in health care might be a good defensive sector for those who need stable income, a large pharmaceutical company might be a good choice Disclosure:.. I have a long position on PPH and CBPO.OB. The data are from Yahoo Finance on 27 November 2009.
