Hi Nick

Thank you for your response. However I am confused as to the mention of a CPS. Are you referring to underlying entitlement to reduce the overpayment?

The claimant apparently retuned home on numerous nights throughout the overpayment period as detailed below;
1/8/20 – 2/8/20
8/8/20 – 10/8/20
15/8/20 – 17/8/20
21/8/20 – 25/8/20

The claimant was then readmitted to hospital on the 2/11/20 until 20/4/22 with the following overnight passes:
15/10/21-18/10/21
21/10/21 – 25/10/21
28/10/21 – 31/10/21
6/11/21 – 8/11/21
11/11/21 – 15/11/21
19/11/21 – 23/11/21
26/11/21 – 30/11/21
3/12/21 – 7/12/21

Could U/E be applied for each period of return to reduce the overpayment?

I hope this makes sense.
