Statutory Levy
Statutory Levy applies to all GDS contracts.
There are 3 payment options and it's the choice of the Commissioner which method they want to use in their area. You can only use one method per area.
The 'Amount Type' has a drop-down menu that will give you 3 options.
The number of months the Levy is deducted can be determined by you.
Percentage Levy
Set the Levy to be a percentage of the monthly Total Contract Value (TCV).
This is apportioned against each clinicians 'gross pay for providers' information.
A Levy will also be taken from any unallocated monthly TCV and this will show as a Levy against the contract.
Fixed Levy
Set amount per clinician per month.
