CQC fees for registered providers 2018/19

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has written to practices regarding the confirmed fee changes which are now published on their website. YORLMC would like to remind practices that these fees are fully reimbursable, a contractual change negotiated last year (2017/18) by the GPC and written into the SFE. (PART 4, PAYMENTS FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES, 20B CQC FEES REIMBURSEMENT SCHEME)

In addition to the above, the BMA has produced guidance for practices which provides a straightforward explanation to help you determine whether you are compliant with the CQC's essential standards. This guidance is available here
