CQC registration toolkit: guidance for GPs
From 1 October 2011, all GP practices and other NHS primary medical services providers will be invited to apply for registration with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and will need to be registered by 1 April 2012.
The purpose of this toolkit is to attempt to reduce the burden of the application process by providing an explanation of CQC registration, information on applying for registration and suggestions on meeting the CQC's quality and safety standards. It also highlights the current situation regarding demonstrating compliance.
