Published in 1993. Valid and useful costings in social and health
care depend not only on a knowledge of costing theory but also on
overcoming the practical difficulties involved. The authors of this
book draw on eighteen years of research at the Personal Social
Services Research Unit (PSSRU) to describe the theory and practise
of costing, and its uses. Costing Community Care differs from other
books which address the subject, by acknowledging and discussing
the practical difficulties of costing, and by examining in detail
the interface between theory and practice. Principles and
methodologies are identified, and pragmatic approaches to achieving
valid date in the face of practical difficulties are described.
Examples from empirical research are used to illustrate particular
issues and four case studies are included which reflect a variety
of methodologies and policy issues.
