The amount compensators are required to pay to the Compensation Recovery Unit in relation to treatment provided to injured claimants will increase for injuries suffered on or after 1 October 2024, as follows:
|
|
Injuries from 1 April 2024 |
Injuries from 1 October 2024 |
|
Outpatient |
£825 |
£848 |
|
Inpatient |
£1,014 |
£1042 |
|
Ambulance Journey (per Journey) |
£249 |
£256 |
|
Maximum |
£60,610 |
£62,272 |
These changes mark the second uplift in 2024 and the combined effect of these is that the increase over the last twelve months has been in excess of 5%.
This increase impacts on claims inflation and compensators must ensure that reserves for accidents which occur on or after 1 October 2024 reflect the increased level of charges.
