I posted a couple of months ago re a very delayed bill for respite my late Dad had whilst we all moved house last year. His stay was for 6 weeks & the care home sent an invoice for his part of the bill - he wasn't self funding so only paid £160 per week. The care home have very kindly agreed they should have dealt with it when he was alive & waived the bill.
But now I've had a call from SS saying they need to do a financial assessment for him re his respite stay. They know he passed away but say they are behind on it (just a bit I'd say). I know only 4 weeks of it were counted a respite so I don't know how they'll work out the other 2. So advice please! I don't want to accept liability - I didn't think I'd filled any forms in before his stay & don't want to now. Apparently they will do it over the phone on Monday - so what do I do? They want all his financial info for the time he went in.
