Dr Michael Chapman

Transparency under the CMA Order 2014

 

All private healthcare operators are required under the Competition and Markets Authority Order 2014 (“The CMA Order”) to be transparent about the relationship between their doctor and the private healthcare operator. Therefore, prospective patients should be aware that (in addition to being permitted to consult with and to treat patients at our facilities) this doctor also has an advisory role with HCA UK and is paid by HCA UK for this advisory role. We describe the nature of the role below, and we indicate how much the doctor has been paid for performing the role since 1 January 2023

 

Dr Chapman provides the following medical advisory services for The Lister Hospital

 

1. Provide professional medical advice on the management growth and continuing operation of gastroenterology and endoscopy services at the Hospital.

 

2. Participate with HCA in the drafting and finalisation of all submission material in relation to the Hospital's JAG (Joint Advisory Group) accreditation.

 

3. Be responsible for communicating the results of audits to the endoscopy users group, endoscopy management, hospital management and the Medical Advisory Committee.

 

4. Provide professional advice to HCA on clinical governance matters in relation to endoscopy and gastroenterology services where requested.

 

All services provided under this agreement are charged to HCA UK. In 2023 no payment was made for these services.

 

If a doctor provides HCA UK with medical advisory services and also practises in the NHS, HCA UK requires that doctor to attest that he/she is not compromising his/her NHS commitments in so doing.
