A Strategic Summit on Navigating CHC Policy, Funding, and Delivery - All Convenzis Events Provide 8 CPD Points Per Delegate
The NHS is facing mounting pressures in delivering Continuing Healthcare (CHC) services, driven by an ageing population, rising complexity of need, and constrained funding. Recent data shows a decline in eligibility and uptake, highlighting the challenges ICBs and providers face in ensuring equitable access while maintaining sustainability. At the same time, national policy frameworks, emphasise the need for integrated, patient-centred approaches and robust governance.
CHC remains a critical area for operational and clinical leadership, demanding practical strategies for improving assessment accuracy, streamlining funding decisions, and enhancing patient and family experience. This conference provides a forum for senior NHS leaders to share insights, explore tested approaches, and build actionable capability across health and social care systems.
Summit Focus:
The CHC conference is a premier event for sharing best practice and innovation, designed to help NHS professionals move from awareness to applied implementation. Delegates will gain hands-on frameworks, tested delivery models, and peer-derived insights on embedding safe, equitable, and sustainable CHC delivery.
Dedicated Skill Clinics provide practical sessions offering tools, checklists, and implementation templates to streamline assessments, fast-track pathways, and governance processes.
Lessons Learned Sessions deliver candid reflections from NHS leaders on real-world challenges in eligibility assessment, workforce deployment, and collaborative commissioning, highlighting course corrections and innovations that work.
This is not a showcase of what to achieve, but a skills exchange on how to achieve it, translating national ambition into measurable improvement.
This year’s event is structured around clear outcomes. Delegates will leave understanding:
- CHC Eligibility and Assessment: Apply robust frameworks for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) eligibility and assessment across multidisciplinary teams.
