How we work with doctors
at The Lister Hospital

Services and Partnerships with doctors

• Low-value services icon plus

  The following low-value services are provided free-of-charge to referring clinicians with practising privileges at HCA facilities:
  
  

  • General services to ensure appropriate clinical care (such as in-house training, chaperones)
  • Workplace amenities (e.g. free/subsidised tea and coffee including for patients, on-site meals, stationery)
  • General marketing (such as general promotional events, consultant directories and internet profiles)

  Car Parking

  Some HCA UK facilities have (or have access to) car parking spaces. Where these spaces are made available to doctors, it is on a first-come, first-served basis. Where spaces are made available to staff and/or doctors, HCA does not charge for these.

• Higher-value services icon plus

  Secretarial and administrative services:
  HCA sometimes employs medical secretaries to liaise with patients, deal with correspondence, make appointments and handle patients’ enquiries on doctors’ behalf. Sometimes, medical secretaries work for more than one doctor. They help to manage complex processes such as payroll, making administration efficient both for doctors and – most importantly – our patients. Medical secretarial services are made available on a non-discriminatory basis and on equivalent terms in accordance with the CMA Order. We charge doctors for using this service at Fair Market Value (FMV).

  HCA charges the following (inclusive of VAT) for secretarial and administrative services:

  Facility	Hourly rate charged by HCA (£)
  The Lister Hospital	24.00
  Chelsea Medical Centre	Not provided at this facility
  Sydney Street Outpatients and Diagnostic Centre	24.00
  Chelsea Outpatient Centre	24.00
  Chiswick Medical Centre	Not provided at this facility
  Lister Fertility Clinic at The Portland Hospital	Not provided at this facility

  
  

  Consulting rooms:
  HCA UK considers that doctors must be able to see our patients without delay, and in close proximity to our diagnostic and treatment facilities. In order to achieve this, we licence our consulting rooms to doctors at Fair Market Value on an hourly or sessional basis at market rates, which we determine by calculating the rent we pay to landlords plus overheads (including rates, services charges, utilities). Consulting rooms are made available on a non-discriminatory basis and on equivalent terms in accordance with the Order.

  HCA charges the following (inclusive of VAT) for consulting rooms:

  Facility	Hourly rate charged by HCA (£)
  The Lister Hospital	21.00
  Chelsea Medical Centre	21.00
  Sydney Street Outpatients and Diagnostic Centre	21.00
  Chelsea Outpatient Centre	21.00
  Chiswick Medical Centre	15.00
  Lister Fertility Clinic at The Portland Hospital	Not provided at this facility

• Events icon plus

  HCA UK provides general corporate hospitality and social events (such as Christmas parties) for staff and doctors. Such hospitality is proportionate and reasonable and is not provided by HCA UK with the intention of inducing referrals or rewarding the referring clinician for making or having made referrals to HCA UK.

  Since 1 January 2022, this Hospital has hosted the following Events:

  • A Women’s Health event in June 2023 costing £115.81 for each invited guest.
  • An event hosted by the Urgent Care Centre in March 2023 costing £65 per invitee.
  • An event hosted by the general surgery group in February 2023 costing £123 per invitee.
  • CEO dinner for GPs in October 2022 costing £89 per head.
  • An annual Christmas party to which consultants were invited in December 2022 costing £165 per head.

• Equity participation icon plus

  Some HCA hospitals and facilities operate partnerships with doctors, some of whom may be referring clinicians.

  Please see below for more information regarding equity ownership in the following joint ventures with The Lister Hospital.

  Initial shares and units are calculated based upon the capital costs of the equipment, leasehold improvements, provided working capital and other costs necessary to establish the Centre. For shares in established ventures, Fair Market Value is applied and reviewed by external specialists based on historic performance and projections.

  The information here is regularly updated, and in this version is correct at 31 March 2023. Where a doctor’s name or a company name appears in italics, it means that discussions were taking place at the stated date regarding an exit from the investment.

• Referring clinicians who also hold other positions at HCA UK icon plus

  A number of doctors provide us with clinical guidance on how to deliver the best possible care to patients and run our hospitals safely and efficiently. We pay those doctors for this service at Fair Market Value (FMV) and we use an independent company to provide assurance around our FMV calculations.
  

  Many of these doctors work at more than one HCA facility. For ease of reference, therefore, you can find more information on any such medical advisory positions (including payments made by HCA to the doctor) on your doctor’s HCA biography webpage.
