The majority of people have to pay something towards any care that they receive.
Specialists in NHS Continuing Healthcare
Some adults with long-term, complex health needs qualify for free social care, arranged and funded solely by the NHS. Care can be provided in a variety of settings outside hospital, such as your own home or a care home.
When an application is made for continuing healthcare and it is subsequently declined, the applicant or their representative is able to contact the Clinical Commissioning Group for an independent review within six months of the initial decision, if they believe the decision is incorrect.
The dispute resolution or review process is complex. A solicitor will need to analyse all the evidence to be able to advise on your prospects for success in challenging a continuing health care decision and prepare written arguments to support the appeal.
Rogers & Norton have extensive experience in dealing with both vulnerable and elderly clients. Our talented and knowledgeable team have the skills needed to support and guide you through the appeals process to achieve the best possible outcome.
