Personal Health Budget Experience Survey

Personal Health Budget Experience Survey
Quality Health November 2018
  • A survey of people with a personal health budget (n=390) carried out for NHS England shows that:
    • 89% of respondents said that their personalised care and support plan reflected what mattered to them, to some extent or completely.
    • 86% of respondents  said that they had achieved what they wanted as a result of their plan, to some extent or completely.
    • 77% of respondents said they were likely or extremely likely to recommend a PHB/IPB to someone else.
  • The report also showed scope for improving support to people, particularly in the information provided to those who were interested in a PHB and the time taken to set one up.
