How we help

The evidence is in the records. We help you find it.

NHS Continuing Healthcare is a legal right — full funding for people whose care needs arise primarily from a health condition. The NHS has no obligation to tell families it exists, and most never hear about it until it's almost too late.

The evidence needed to make a successful claim is almost always already there — in GP notes, hospital discharge summaries, care plans. CareAdvocate helps you understand what that evidence shows and how to present it properly.

Three steps. Each one optional.

Start wherever makes sense for your situation. You don't need to begin at step one — and you never have to take the next step if you don't need to.

Free Eligibility Screener

Takes 3 minutes. Uses the same 12 NHS criteria as the Decision Support Tool to give an instant indication of whether CHC is worth pursuing.

When it's right for you

If you're wondering whether your loved one might qualify for CHC and you want an honest, fast indication before committing to anything.

What it does not promise

This is a screening tool, not an assessment. A positive result means it's worth pursuing — not that you'll definitely qualify. This is not legal advice. We don't guarantee outcomes.

Case Strength Report

Upload medical records and care plans. Our AI maps the evidence to the 12 NHS domains and shows where your case is strong and where gaps exist — before you commit to the full Checklist process.

When it's right for you

If the screener suggests eligibility and you want to understand your evidence strength before deciding whether to pursue the formal Checklist process.

What it does not promise

The CSR tells you whether pursuing a Checklist is worth it. It does not produce the Checklist submission itself. This is not legal advice. We don't guarantee outcomes.

Checklist Evidence Pack

A fully mapped evidence pack with every domain categorised against official NHS Checklist A/B/C descriptors. Built for you to present at the Checklist meeting — or for your advocate to use on your behalf.

When it's right for you

If you're preparing for a Checklist screening meeting and want professional-quality evidence mapping that uses the same NHS framework the assessors use.

What it does not promise

We prepare the evidence. We don't attend the meeting or guarantee the outcome. You can use an advocate to present it, or present it yourself. This is not legal advice. We don't guarantee outcomes.

Families who found their way

I had no idea we could claim back two years of fees. CareAdvocate helped me understand exactly what to request and what to say. We got a reassessment within six weeks.
