Excluded CCG items from Social Fund
Wed 25-Apr-07 12:49 PM

Hello all

Would an adjustable orthopaedic bed and chair lift for bath be classed as medical needs and exluded from CCG's?

I seem to remember an article in the IRS magazine "Review" on medical needs some time ago - any thoughts would be appreciated.

If you have the latest CPAG book page 488 will help I think. It explains how to argue that these are not "excluded medical items"
