No funding has ever been specifically allocated for NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) checklists, and as such, we do not hold this information. NHS England provides funding to integrated care boards (ICBs) to fulfil their core duty to commission high-quality care in a cost-effective way. CHC funding is calculated using the ICB allocation formula, which takes into consideration attributes of the local population to assess the level of need. It is for individual ICBs to decide how best to use their allocation to deliver their functions.
