Clinical Reference Groups
(asked on 24th February 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, which NHS clinical reference groups are chaired by employees of NHS England or people receiving financial reimbursement from NHS England.
This question was answered on 3rd March 2015
NHS England has advised that the chairs of Clinical Reference Groups (CRGs) are appointed senior clinicians from around the country who are acting on a voluntary basis with the support of their employing organisations (usually NHS trusts). They are therefore not salaried, employed or reimbursed by NHS England in respect of their CRG roles.
