Two hospitals have been warned to provide information for publication about the quality of their private healthcare services after failing to comply with The Private Healthcare Market Investigation Order
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has written publicly to 2 private hospitals (a letter to the Ulster Independent Clinic, and a letter to the Fortius Clinic) after their failure to provide data for publication on performance and patient outcomes so that prospective patients have the information they need to compare healthcare providers and consultants. Both hospitals have produced a plan to achieve compliance within 6 months and if this is not fulfilled, then the CMA can take further enforcement action.
