No. CHC is not means-tested. A person's savings, property, income, or pension are completely irrelevant to CHC eligibility and to the amount of funding awarded. This is the most important distinction between CHC and local authority social care. If a person qualifies, the NHS funds their care in full (regardless of how much money they have).
