The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is consulting on draft advice for providers of care homes and nursing home services to the over 65s in the UK (referred to in this document as ‘care home providers’).
This is primarily in relation to the charging of fees following the death of a long-term resident, in particular:
(a) residential fees (for care or accommodation or both) payable after the death of a self-funded or part-funded resident; and
(b) fees payable to cover ‘shortfalls’ in any contributions which are no longer paid by the state on (or shortly after) the death of a resident.
