Understand Your Eligibility for NHS Continuing Healthcare

Navigating the NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) eligibility process can be complex and often overwhelming. At Zanith CHC Consultancy, we provide expert guidance to help you understand the criteria, prepare effectively, and present a strong case that accurately reflects your healthcare needs.

Our goal is to ensure that you or your loved one receives a fair and thorough assessment, giving you the best possible chance of securing CHC funding.

What is a CHC Eligibility Assessment?

A CHC eligibility assessment is carried out by the NHS to determine whether an individual’s primary need is a health need. If eligible, the NHS will fully fund the cost of care.

The process typically involves:

• An initial Checklist Assessment
• A more detailed Full Assessment (Decision Support Tool – DST)
• A final eligibility decision made by the NHS

Understanding each stage — and what evidence is required — is critical to achieving the right outcome.
