What is financing for healthcare?
In that it is defined as “the treatment, control or prevention of a disease, illness, accident or impairment,” a healthcare requirement differs from a social care need. To “provide support with daily living activities, retain independence, stimulate social connection, enable an individual to play a larger role in society, safeguard them in compromising situations, and help them manage complex relationships,” social care financing is meant to be used.
Summit Health Care Solutions has developed strong relationships with several CCGs in order to guarantee that our clients acquire the correct paid care package that will enable them to receive the proper care, when they need it, for the length of their lives. We work together to make sure that the care and help provided changes to meet evolving needs.
