What Are CHC Reviews?
Continuing Healthcare (CHC) reviews are periodic assessments conducted to ensure that individuals still meet the criteria for CHC funding and that their care package is appropriate for their needs. The review process typically involves CHC notifying you that they wish to evaluate your care package to confirm whether it is being utilized as agreed and if you continue to qualify for CHC funding. Additionally, you have the right to request a review if your care needs have changed significantly, such as requiring additional support or increased funding. These reviews are a crucial part of ensuring that care is tailored to your current needs and circumstances.
