HIS Regulation
With recent changes in Scotland under the Regulation of Independent Clinics legislation all persons or organisations offering private medical services must be registered with Healthcare Improvement Scotland and clinical activity may only be carried out from premises who are registered
Who does this legislation apply to?
Below is an extract from the HIS website
“Independent clinics are defined in the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 as clinics that are not part of a hospital and from which a medical practitioner, dental practitioner, registered nurse, registered midwife or dental care professional (clinical dental technician, dental hygienist, dental nurse, dental technician, dental therapist, orthodontic therapist). provides a service, which is not part of the National Health Service. The term ‘service’ includes consultations, investigations and treatments.”
The Solution.
- If you are a fully qualified practitioner described in the categories above.
- If you hold a current membership / registration with your professional body.
- If you have indemnity insurance for your private practice.
