Restitution Calculation Service

We can help ensure you are properly reimbursed after an award of CHC funding

If you have been awarded CHC retrospectively and don’t know how to ensure fair and proper restitution, we can help you!

Families often tell us they have no idea if the ICB’s offer of reimbursement is correct or if they are being short-changed, particularly when it comes to calculating interest. As there is no set formula for calculating restitution and interest, each ICB has its own method.

Farley Dwek have many years’ experience calculating retrospective restitution awards for our clients and negotiating fair and robust settlements with ICBs.  We ensure our clients get paid their just entitlement to restitution and as quickly as possible.

Our approach

This is a unique service, for which we offer 3 different options depending on your budget and how much help you need:

  • Option 1: We will check that the ICB’s methodology is reasonable and that their calculation is correct, based on the documentation provided by the ICB.
  • Option 2: We will scrutinise the ICB’s figures against your own documentation to ensure there are no missed payments. We will check their methodology and the interest rates applied. We will advise you of any errors identified.
  • Option 3: We will calculate the principal sum before interest and present your claim to the ICB with supporting evidence. Upon receipt, we will check the ICB’s offer and interest calculation and advise you accordingly. We will negotiate, as necessary, with the ICB and chase until payment is received.
Solicitor meeting

"Through out my dealings with Farley Dwek I found them to be efficient and very helpful. But above all their honesty impressed me the most. Never have come across an organisation that would put ethics before profit. For this alone I would highly recommend them."

Tim

"Farley Dwek persevered in a very old and difficult case on my behalf and were successful through tenacity and a refusal to give up, along with an in depth knowledge of the subject matter."

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

"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

"Andrew had a high degree of expertise in this field and was able to offer practical advice on how best to prepare an evidenced based case. He was also able to identify areas where the framework had been incorrectly applied. With this expert knowledge and guidance, we were successful in our appeal and the original recommendation of the DST was overturned. Our mother was awarded full CHC funding, backdated with payments refunded. The best £300 we ever spent!"
