care for elderly relatives which should have been funded by the NHS.Ultimate Law Ltd have employed a dedicated team so we can help people
claim back money that is lawfully theirs.
Should the NHS be paying YOUR nursing home fees?
We are committed to ensuring people do not pay avoidable nursing home fees and provide help in recovering fees that have already been incorrectly
charged.
Who can we help?
If you have a serious long term health condition, you may qualify for funding from the NHS Continuing Healthcare budget to meet the expenses of your healthcare
needs. This includes the cost of residential and nursing home fees if your care needs necessitate that you live in a nursing or care home, or the costs
accrued if you are paying for nursing care to be provided in your own home.
Those with enduring healthcare needs caused by:
- Alzheimer's disease
- Dementia
- Severe mental or physical disability
A large portion of the 200,000 people receiving long term care in England and Wales may be eligible to have their fees paid by the NHS.
More importantly these people could be eligible to reclaim fees they have paid in the past! If you think that you are amongst the many thousands of people
who have been wrongly denied continuing healthcare funding, or if you are the relative of someone who you think has been wrongly denied funding, we can
help.
What can we do?
- If You or your family have wrongly paid for continuing health care costs that should have been funded by the NHS We can help!
