Cost of Future Care Analysis: Planning for Long-Term Injury Needs with Clinical Precision

By Functional Therapy & Wellness Inc. | Medico-Legal OT Experts in British Columbia

In cases involving catastrophic injuries or long-term impairments, accurate forecasting is essential. A Cost of Future Care (CFC) Analysis, also known as a Life Care Plan, offers a detailed projection of an injured person’s future rehabilitation and support needs, grounded in clinical evidence and occupational therapy expertise.

At Functional Therapy & Wellness Inc., we prepare comprehensive, defensible CFC reports to assist in personal injury litigation, insurance settlements, and disability planning.

What Is a Cost of Future Care Analysis?

A CFC analysis outlines the services, equipment, and supports a person will likely need for the rest of their life as a result of their injury. This may include:

  • Ongoing therapy (OT, physio, psychological support)

  • Attendant care or personal support services

  • Home and vehicle modifications

  • Durable medical equipment

  • Assistive technology

  • Transportation needs

When to Refer for a CFC Analysis

These reports are commonly required when:

  • Clients have sustained serious or catastrophic injuries (e.g., TBI, SCI, amputations)

  • Future costs need to be quantified for settlement or litigation

  • Ongoing care planning is required for complex, long-term cases

Our assessments are built on clinical evaluations, medical file reviews, standards of care, and jurisdiction-specific guidelines.

Why Referral Sources Trust Our Reports

Our CFC reports are:

  • Clear, accurate, and professionally formatted

  • Compliant with legal and insurer standards

  • Supported by clinical rationale and cost estimates

  • Effective in mediation, arbitration, or court proceedings

We collaborate with lawyers, insurers, and rehab professionals to ensure every detail reflects the true scope of need.
