Tell us what has happened with the care funding

You can contact Care Home Cost Claims about NHS Continuing Healthcare eligibility, a rejected or withdrawn CHC decision, an appeal, retrospective care fees or a possible estate claim. The first step is to give us enough information to identify the correct route — not to assume that every care-fee payment is recoverable.

What to tell us

The information that helps at the first stage

01

What has happened?

For example: paying privately and never assessed; Checklist or DST completed; CHC refused; funding withdrawn; appeal underway; or the person has died.

02

What period are you concerned about?

Approximate dates are enough initially. If the issue concerns an estate, tell us whether you are the executor or administrator.

03

What evidence already exists?

Decision letters, Checklist or DST documents, care plans, nursing records, hospital records and invoices can all help us understand the procedural history.

04

What are the main care needs?

A short description is enough at the first stage — for example cognition, behaviour, mobility, skin, breathing, nutrition, medication or several interacting needs.

What happens next?

A clear first-stage process

1. We identify the routeCurrent eligibility, appeal, retrospective review, estate issue or another funding route.
2. We identify what is missingWe may need the decision, DST, care records, authority to act or other evidence before advising on next steps.
3. You decide how to proceedYou can use the NHS process yourself. If legal work may add value, scope and fees can be discussed separately.
