Social care is the nightmare that won’t go away | Institute for Fiscal Studies

Sir Andrew Dilnot described as a tragedy’ this government’s abandonment of the long fought for implementation of his plan —published all the way back in 2011 —to limit the costs that individuals should face.

Around one in seven 65-year-olds can expect to spend more than 100,000 on their social care.

We know the answer, we can limit the total amount that anyone should spend on social care over their life.

Navigating a hopelessly complex system with inconsistent provision and a hazy line between free healthcare and paid-for social care is a nightmare.

Many will have to spend a lifetime’s accumulated assets when they had every right to expect they had escaped that fate until this government abandoned the changes that would have spared them.
