A report of the Cabinet Member for Adults. Health and Wellbeing, seeking to extend Adult Social Care’s Service Level Agreement with the Miocare Group.

The report considered a report of the Director of Adult Social Care (DASS) that sought approval to extend the Service Level Agreement with Adult Social Care and Miocare Group CIC, for a range of services provided.

The report also sought a commitment for wider Council colleagues to work with Miocare Group CIC to develop Service Level Agreements and specifications of requirements for those corporate services that Miocare Group CIC “buys back” from the Council.

Options/Alternatives considered:

Option 1 - To not extend the Service Level Agreement, and do not develop Service Level Agreements and specifications of requirements for services Miocare buys back from the council.

Option 2 – Do not extend the Service Level Agreement until the future focus of MioCare Group is clarified (with reference to paragraph 2.6, of the submitted report), and do not develop Service Level Agreements and specifications of requirements for services MioCare buys back from the council until that time.

Option 3 (the preferred Option) – Extend the Service Level Agreement for the services delivered to the Council by MioCare Group CIC and develop Service Level Agreements and specifications of requirements for services MioCare buys back from the council.

Resolved:

That the Cabinet:

1.    Approves the Service Level Agreement with Miocare Group CIC.

2.    Approves the refreshed Service Level Agreement updates the provisions governing the relationship and service delivery between the Council and Miocare Group CIC. The provisions allow for variation as the future focus of the Miocare Group becomes clearer through the implementation of the Adult Social Care Target Operating Model.

3.    Endorses wider corporate services work with Miocare to develop Service Level Agreements and specifications of requirements for services Miocare buys back from the Council.
