It is intended that the framework will be established from March 2017 for 4 years, with contracts being awarded to support Service Users either directly by the CCG, or on the basis of patient choice. The services to be offered through the framework are intended to include: • Support planning • Payment service (including Third Party/Managed Account) • Employer advice and guidance These PHB Support Services will support both adults and children who have been approved to receive a PHBs by the CCGs. Please see the attached Draft Service Specification for further details of the CCGs' requirements. Whilst uptake of PHBs by Services Users is currently low, a significant increase is expected over the next 5 years as the CCG plans to award at least 222 PHBs over the next 5 years to meet the intentions published by NHS England.
