3.3.6 Refund of accommodation costs

The lump sum deposit (RAD, RAC) is refundable when the resident leaves care. However if the provider and resident agree, certain amounts can be deducted from the RAC and RAD, such as daily care fees, meaning the refunded amount when the person leaves care would be less these agreed deductions. Any amount of daily payment (DAP, DAC) paid in advance must also be refunded. If a resident leaves care and has not paid any DAP or DAC in advance, they can only be charged the daily payment up to the day they leave care.
