What we do

We have four key service areas:

Practitioner Performance Advice: delivering expert advice, support and interventions on the fair management of concerns about the performance of doctors, dentists and pharmacists.

Primary Care Appeals: an impartial resolution service for the fair handling of primary care contracting disputes.

Safety and Learning: supporting the NHS, our members and beneficiaries to better understand their claims risk profiles, to target their safety activity while sharing learning across the system to improve patient care.
