Your registration roadmap

A guided path to CQC registration for GP practices, independent hospitals and clinics — from choosing regulated activities to clinical governance and your fit-person interview.

Define Your Regulated Activities

Decide exactly which regulated activities your GP practice, hospital or clinic will provide — treatment of disease, disorder or injury; surgical procedures; diagnostic and screening procedures; maternity; or Mental Health Act assessment/treatment.

List every service line and map it to a regulated activityDo not over-register — each activity needs its own competence, equipment and governance evidenceGP practices also need an NHS England contract (GMS/PMS/APMS) or private patient model
2

Provider, Registered Manager & Nominated Individual

Choose your legal entity and identify a registered manager for each location and a nominated individual for the provider. All directors are subject to the fit and proper person requirement.

Enhanced DBS, references, employment history and financial standing for each fit personRegistered manager must have relevant clinical or management experienceStart checks early — they are the main cause of delay
