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

Honest, straight-talking, knowledgeable solicitors. I contacted Farley Dwek via their online ‘contact us’ form regarding my father’s eligibility for NHS continuing care. I knew they were experts in the field and I had already paid for and downloaded their excellent guide on the subject. Despite the fact that it became quickly obvious that there was no case for them in this instance, Ruth still gave me close to an hour of her time and was compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and also willing to give me an honest, off-the-cuff appraisal of our situation and chances of receiving funding.

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.

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!

Jane

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

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.
