No CommentsLately I’ve been getting a lot of queries on the latest HCA bid round. Questions range from “how do we bid for the HCA money for our scheme?”, to “how much will we get?” to, “are we eligible?”.
My own view is you need to get the basics correct before you do anything so I prepared a quick checklist of things that needs to be in place before any bidding is put in place.

Yes it’s that time of year – Compliance Audit, and I’m being inundated with phone calls. If you have received a letter from the HCA about attending a training event with your auditor, then you have been selected for a Compliance Audit. As many of you know I worked for the HCA and helped develop many of the HCA processes. In my article I hope to address common queries that I get on Compliance Audit.
