Frant Road Clinic provides private GP services including consultations, treatment, referrals to specialist services and general health checks.
This practice is registered with CQC under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 in respect of some, but not all, of the services it provides. There are some general exemptions from regulation by CQC which relate to particular types of service and these are set out in Schedule 2 of The Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014. For example, at Frant Road Clinic services are provided to patients under arrangements made by their employer or a government department or insurance company with whom the servicer user holds a policy (other than a standard health insurance policy). These types of arrangements are exempt by law from CQC regulation. Therefore, at Frant Road Clinic, we were only able to inspect the services which are not arranged for patients under any of the terms above.
There are two GPs at Frant Road Clinic, one of them is the registered manager. A registered manager is a person who is registered with the Care Quality Commission to manage the practice. Like registered providers, they are ‘registered persons’. Registered persons have legal responsibility for meeting the requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated Regulations about how the practice is run.
