Appraisal and Revalidation (added 23/01/12)

As stated in November GPC News, we have heard reports of some PCTs using the planned introduction of revalidation to justify implementing more stringent appraisal frameworks.

Revalidation is currently due to be introduced from late 2012 and the evidence requirements have not yet been confirmed or agreed. PCTs therefore should not be implementing new appraisal frameworks on this basis.

The DH steering group on remediation (revalidation) has published a report setting out its recommendations. Access the report on the guidance page (R) on this website.
