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

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.

CHC client

Fantastic service from all of the team at Farley Dwek. The case was a minefield to us but with FD’s expertise and compassion a very positive result. No hidden fees at all. Again our sincere thanks for all of your help and support. The result was what we had been hoping for. They clearly have a specific expertise in this area and I’m very glad that I sought their advice.

CHC client

Thanks to Andrew’s guidance, we were able to articulate and feedback our reservations to the CHC and they ended up ruling in our favour. We therefore did not end up having to formally instruct Farley Dwek for representation but our impression was that they were an exemplary firm with judicious invested leadership and noble ethics.

CHC client

We felt more confident going into the review process with Farley Dwek on our side. After they attended the assessment meeting with us we secured the funding and we continue to save on the astronomical care home fees that we might otherwise have had to pay.

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.
