CHC Preparation Tools

The NHS should often fund your loved one's care. Most families never find out.

80% of CHC applications are rejected — usually because families don't know how to present the evidence. Our tools are based on the same NHS National Framework that professional advocates use. Professional advocacy typically costs £3,000–7,000.

Every pack comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Common questions

Which pack should I start with?

If you're early in the process, start with the Case Strength Report (£97). If a Checklist is already booked, move straight to the Checklist Evidence Pack. If the case is progressing to the DST/MDT stage, the MDT Preparation Pack is the right next step. If you've already had a refusal, go straight to the CHC Appeal Pack.

What format do the packs come in?

Case Strength Report and Checklist Evidence Pack outputs are delivered through your secure dashboard. MDT and Appeal preparation documents are generated as downloadable PDFs once the case has been reviewed.

What if it doesn't help?

Every product comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. If you don't find it helpful, email us and we'll refund you in full.

Is this legal advice?

No. We provide advocacy guidance and information based on the NHS National Framework and Care Act 2014. Our guides explain the law and process in plain English — they are not a substitute for professional legal advice.

How is this different from hiring a CHC advocate?

A CHC advocate attends meetings, writes letters, and liaises with the ICB on your behalf. Our packs are designed to give families structured preparation at each stage of the process, based on the same NHS National Framework, without implying representation or guaranteed outcomes.

Is it too late to claim if my loved one has already been refused?

No — and you may also be able to claim back fees already paid. CHC decisions can be appealed through the Independent Review Panel (IRP), and retrospective claims can cover up to 6 years of wrongly-paid care fees. Our Case Strength Report is the best starting point if you've received a refusal.
