CQC policies & risk assessments for telehealth & online clinics

A compliance set written for digital-first care - remote assessment, online consent, remote prescribing, cyber security and the emergency pathways CQC expects from a service that never sees patients in person.

Written by founders Claire Barker & Aaron Scott — who have registered and run their own CQC-regulated clinics
Kept up to date as CQC guidance changes, with a plain-English note on what changed
If a file is faulty or not as described, we'll fix it or refund it
In short
Remote and online providers face a distinct set of CQC questions: how do you safely assess and prescribe at a distance, verify identity, protect data and respond to an emergency you cannot physically attend? This pack answers each of those with purpose-written policies and risk assessments for digital care.
