The question of whether CQC can access patient records during CQC
inspections has been discussed on Twitter.
Sarah Woolaston (chair of the House of Commons Health Select Committee) has
asked for examples where the power to access patient records has been used

examples please of how it is being carried out
Can anyone help with this?
In another part of the thread, it has been suggested that GPs and PMs are
being asked to give CQC inspectors their passwords/pin codes so that the CQC
inspectors can gain access (which would, AFAIAA a serious breach of RBAC
regulations where sharing is a disciplinary offence *and* corrupt the audit
trail): has anyone suffered from this?

Subject: CQC inspectors accessing GP patient records:what about "Fair
Processing"
Looking at the CQC website on GP inspections
http://www.cqc.org.uk/content/gp-and-out-hours-mythbusters-nigel-sparrow#acc
essing-medical-records
It seems that, under the HSCA 2008, CQC has a right to access patient
records without needing any consent, and the number of records accessed will
vary - but it sounds as though some inspection is a routine part of an
inspection.
(Has anyone had an inspection, and were your patients' records accessed?)
In the case of Care.data, we have been told that GPs, as Data Controllers,
have to inform all their patients about the program as part of "fair
processing".
Do GPs have a similar duty to inform their patients about the CQC?

Will I be seeing you at the PHCSG Confernce on 9-10th October?
