NHS continuing healthcare funding can cover the costs of care.
NHS continuing healthcare (or NHS CHC) is free healthcare provided by the NHS to individuals who have significant and ongoing healthcare needs. This package of care can be received in any setting outside of hospital including care homes, hospices or even within your own home. An individual does not need to be in a nursing home to be eligible for funding. Their health needs, not their location is the key factor.
To be eligible for NHS CHC, it must be established that your need for care is primarily health related. Additionally, this need must be assessed as complex, substantial and ongoing.
It doesn’t matter what your income is or what savings you have, if you meet the criteria, you are entitled to free NHS CHC funding. Remember, NHS continuing healthcare funding is not means tested and it can cover up to 100% of care costs.
If you are currently paying, or have previously paid for care, you could be eligible for funding to cover future care costs or to recover care costs which have already been paid.
