The System Maintenance - Annual Parameters - Care Cost Element Rates screen in A4W lets you hold a type against the weekly amount for the care cost element. The available types are Free nursing care, Joint funded, and Other (including third party).
​

We introduced these different types so local authorities and trusts can report separately on the commitments from these three elements in the Annual Commitments report in A4W, without affecting any other functionality.
