\n
\n

Who is eligible for CHC funding?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n Eligibility is based on the nature, intensity, complexity, and unpredictability of an individual\u2019s healthcare needs \u2014 not their financial situation or diagnosis alone. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n

How do I apply for CHC funding?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n

Can I claim back care fees already paid?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n Yes, through retrospective claims, you may be able to recover care costs if it is found that CHC funding should have been awarded in the past. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n

Do I need professional help with my CHC case?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n

What evidence is needed for a CHC assessment or appeal?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
