What Is A Medical Appraisal?
In the UK, doctors are subject to regular medical appraisals to ensure that they are providing high-quality patient care and staying up to date with the latest developments in their field. These doctor appraisals are arranged by Responsible Officers (ROs) appointed by the organisation (designated body). The responsible officer, appointed by designated body, ensure appraisals are arranged for all doctors connected with the designated body.
Doctors appraisals are a useful tool for practicing doctors to improve their practice. The review is done by gathering information from the doctor’s scope of work, which may include patient feedback, case reviews, and assessments of clinical skills. The process of appraisal for doctors aims to support continuous professional development, enhance patient safety and ensure that doctors are providing high-quality care.
Further information on the medical appraisal process and its requirements can be found on our Doctors Appraisal for Revalidation webpage.
