Challenging NHS Continuing Health Care Decisions - What You Need to Know

Introduction

As the population ages, the need to identify who should pay for long-term care has become vital.

All private client practitioners should know how to access appropriate funding and executors have a legal duty to maximise the value of an estate.

It is also important that later life advisers and will writers are aware of potential entitlement to full financial funding of care costs from the NHS, so they can provide their clients with holistic advice.

This webinar is suitable for will writers, private client advisers and probate practitioners, who should all have an awareness of the NHS Continuing Healthcare framework and the implications for their clients.

The webinar will cover the following:

• What is NHS continuing healthcare and what does this mean for individuals, executors, deputies and attorneys?
• The assessment process including the application of the national framework, fast track and decisions support tool
• How you challenge decisions through the local and national resolution process
• How to request retrospective reviews
