Appeal Representation

Expert case management

If you are embarking on the Local Resolution process after an MDT or preparing for an Independent Review Panel following an unsuccessful local appeal for Continuing Healthcare, we can help you present your case effectively.

If you need help with a CHC Appeal, the first stage is our Appeal Advice Service. If we do recommend appeal, instructing us to represent you can maximise your chances of success.

Successful CHC appeals depend on presenting the right evidence, in the right way. Our specialist team can do the hard work for you and ensure the NHS has the information it needs to make the right decision.

Our experienced Case Managers can provide expert representation at both Local Resolution Meetings and Independent Review Panels, giving you invaluable support.

Our approach…

The main steps involved in our Appeal Representation Service:

  • Obtaining evidence for the appeal period in the form of care and medical records
  • Preparing a Detailed Medical Assessment using the records obtained. Sending this report to one of our Independent Nurse Assessors for analysis and clinical input
  • Providing you with in-depth advice about the merits of the claim
  • Subject to merits, lodging appeal with the NHS, preparing Written Submissions and dealing with all correspondence
  • Preparing for and attending the Local Resolution Meeting and/or Independent Review Panel; providing expert representation
  • Reviewing the outcome and offering our advice

 

Solicitor meeting

A sound investment! I had researched a number of firms offering assistance to help secure CHC funding for our Mum. I was very glad I chose Farley Dwek. Both my brother and I are retired solicitors and are able plough our way through regulatory material and legislation, However, neither of us had any experience in this area of law. I really appreciated Farley Dwek’s transparent and sensible advice. I would recommend doing the initial screening exercise with one of their nurses, we had the excellent Diane Jenkins for screening (and eventual support at the MDT).

CHC client

My sister and I have received absolutely first class professional support, guidance and advice throughout an extended period of time, seeking CHC on behalf of our mother. Every member of the team, with whom we had various communications with, were professional, courteous, and clear. The process is a challenging one and without their guidance, support and expert knowledge we would not have achieved the successful outcome that we did. We cannot recommend them enough.

If a relative of yours is going into a care home or nursing home, I’d 100% recommend you to call Farley Dwek to see if you are eligible for NHS Continuing Healthcare Funding.

Peter Shaw

From the moment I picked up the phone to Farley Dwek the stress levels we suffered dropped significantly as we had everything explained to us.

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Debbie Payton dealt with us and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Huge thank to all at Farley Dwek for dealing with such a delicate matter so promptly and professionally.
