Pooled Budget definition

Pooled Budget means those elements of each Approved Budget within the Integrated Health and Care Fund which can legally be “pooled” under “pooled fund arrangementsentered into pursuant to Section 75(2)(a) of the XXX Xxx 0000 and Regulation 7 of the NHS Regulations 2000 and which the Partners have determined or shall determine will be pooled. The element of the Services that fall within the Pooled Budget are indicated at Schedule 3.

Pooled Budget means that different agencies contribute funds, but one host agency accounts for the money. Less formally, budgets can be aligned. This occurs when different agencies effectively keep their money in their own accounts but align the money toward agreed joint outcomes (Lorgelley et al 2009). A number of legislative examples of pooled funding are in existence in England. Section 28a of the NHS Act 1977 and Section 31 Partnership Arrangements of the Health Act 1999 enabled local authorities and NHS trusts to pool finances through legal agreements. Section 75 of the NHS Act 2006 allows the pooling of funds where payments may be made towards expenditure incurred in the exercise of any NHS or ‘health-related’ local authority functions. Section 75 also allows for one partner to take the lead in commissioning services on behalf of the other (lead commissioning) and for partners to combine resources, staff and management structures to help integrate service provision (integrated management or provision), commonly known as ‘Health Act flexibilities’. Staff can be seconded/transferred and managed by another organisation’s personnel. The Act also makes provision for the functions (statutory powers or duties) to be delivered on a daily basis by another partner, subject to the agreed terms of delegation. This legislation only applies to local authority and health partners.
