My HA (East Surrey) is piloting a scheme that. if extended logically,
it would have to go your way.
They work out an IoS 'budget', call it an average. They you pay you a
sum each month and square everything up every year. You still have to
submit the claims though. A kind of British Gas payment scheme but in
reverse.
The big advantage here is that you get your money upfront, often before
the work is done.
