    HOW IT WORKS ...
​For their Annual Appraisal, every Doctor collects a 'folder of evidence' to show how they are meeting the GMC's medical standards.  The information includes feedback from patients and colleagues, and proof of continuing medical training.

The Doctor will meet annually with a specially trained medical colleague - the Appraiser - to discuss their 'folder of evidence' and to reflect upon how they can improve their treatment of patients.

The information from the Annual Appraisal is given to the doctor's 'Responsible Officer' - a senior Doctor who will then make a recommendation to the GMC.

Once the new system is operational, all Doctors will be Revalidated (re-licensed) every five years.

​PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT
PROPOSAL FOR THE ENGLISH REVALIDATION IMPLEMENTATION BOARD

By:  Malcolm Alexander, Chair, Healthwatch and Public Involvement Association
October 2015 ...  5 pages

​YOUR DOCTOR WILL ...
  • Work in partnership with you to ensure you get the best possible care.
  • Put patients' safety first.
  • Make sure that the care provided is safe and effective.
  • Treat patients as individuals.
  • Be honest and trustworthy.
  • Participate in a new licensing system called 'Revalidation' to improve medical practice.

These are standards set out by the General Medical Council (GMC) in guidance called 'Good Medical Practice'.  The GMC regulates all doctors in the UK, to ensure that they provide the best possible care.
