Pays contributions to top up Personal Budget
Question text:
In addition to your user charges, do {if (UserChg > 0) & (UserChg (MIS|DK|REF))} Do {if UserChg =0 | UserChg = (MIS|DK|REF)} you pay to top up your Personal Budget at all? This might be to pay for a more expensive option than the council has allowed for, or to pay for more care than the council suggested.
Question universe:
if (ff_survlengthw18 2|3 & ((HHGRID.dvage >= 65) & (GRIDVARIABLES.ModeType = 1|3))) // Not in Short Survey experiment groups & Aged 65 or over and mode is face-to-face or web
And if ((HHGrid.Region = 1 & HelpCode = 1 thru 18) // Lives in England and help/care provided by formal/informal carers
And if (PersBudg = 1) // Has been allocated a Personal Budget
