Mrs X’s Success Story

We helped with

Retrospective Review

Farley Dwek Solicitors were instructed on behalf of the late Mrs X to pursue a retrospective claim for NHS Continuing Healthcare Funding (CHC) against her local Clinical Commissioning Group for wrongly paid care home fees.

Initially, upon retrospective assessment, the CCG concluded that Mrs X was eligible for CHC Funding for the last 5 months in care before she passed away. However, the CCG rejected the claim for CHC for any prior period of care. Farley Dwek remained dissatisfied with this outcome arguing that the CCG’s decision was flawed.

Farley Dwek then pursued an appeal to an Independent Review Panel held by NHS England.

The IRP found that the CCG’s decision was unsound and Mrs X was eligible for CHC for the full prior period of care under appeal.

In total, the team at Farley Dwek Solicitors have helped Mrs X’s family recover over £45,000 in care fees.

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."

Edward Battersby

"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."

CHC client

"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

"I cannot recommend FARLEY DWEK enough should you find yourself in this unfortunate situation. They ring you when they say they will, they write to you with updates and keep you informed all the way. I'd like to especially thank Ruth Pople and Jonathan Dwek who I regularly spoke to during the process."
