Government response to the Paterson Inquiry

Government response to the Paterson Inquiry

Mark Sibbering has compiled a very helpful summary of the Paterson Inquiry including the recommendations.  Access the document here.

It is relevant to all members, with much general advice on raising concerns.  It is particularly relevant to those doing private practice, especially in reference to complaints, indemnity and MDT working.

The ABS would like to draw to its members' attention one key recommendation:  Clinic letters should be written to and sent to patients and copied to the GP (not vice versa).
