CQC Clarity is structured audit membership designed not just for compliance — but to demonstrate, over time, that you know what works in your practice and what doesn't. A rolling cycle of governance, not a pre-inspection scramble.
Most practices approach governance reactively — pulling together evidence when an inspection looks likely, then letting things slip again once it's over. CQC Clarity is built around a different model.
104 governance audits, delivered across a two-year proactive cycle, build a continuous and sustained evidence trail. When CQC arrives — whether announced or not — you're not scrambling. You're pointing to a record of ongoing governance activity that shows your practice understands its own risks and manages them continuously.
This is what inspectors are looking for. Not a folder full of policies. A practice that knows what it does, knows where the risks are, and can demonstrate that it has been paying attention.
The audits cover all five CQC key questions — Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-Led — with structured criteria, action prompts, and evidence collation built in. A new audit is released each week, covering a different area of your practice's governance landscape.
Infection control, safeguarding, medicines management, significant events, and clinical risk — audited continuously, not just before inspection.
QOF performance, clinical audits, referral pathways, and evidence-based care — documented in a format inspectors can follow.
Friends & Family Test analysis, complaints, feedback themes, and the actions taken in response — demonstrating that the practice listens and acts.
Appointment access, patient communication, reasonable adjustments, and capacity planning — the areas most likely to drive patient dissatisfaction.
Risk register reviews, team meeting documentation, policy currency, training compliance, and leadership accountability — the domain that ties everything together.
AI-assisted policy drafting and evidence collation built into the membership — reducing the time cost of governance without reducing the quality of the output.
Two years. 104 audits. One continuous record. After the first cycle completes, you repeat — deepening your evidence and demonstrating that governance is embedded in how the practice works, not performed for inspection.
A structured audit for every significant area of practice governance — with clear criteria, evidence prompts, and action planning built in to each one.
One new audit released weekly across the two-year cycle — creating a steady, manageable rhythm rather than an overwhelming backlog.
AI-assisted policy drafting, evidence collation, and compliance reference — purpose-built for primary care governance, not generic AI tools repurposed for the sector.
Connect with Practice Managers and GP Partners across the UK who are working through the same challenges — sharing what works and what doesn't.
A searchable reference built to help you turn governance requirements into practical action — closing the gap between knowing what CQC expects and actually demonstrating it.
Regular updates on CQC developments — including the new sector-specific framework, the Returning to Good programme, and what both mean for your practice right now.
Pay monthly for flexibility, or annually to save two months. Both give you full access to everything — no difference in content or features.
No setup fee. Cancel your monthly membership any time. Annual memberships are paid upfront — contact us if you need to discuss your circumstances.
It's the right fit for practices with internal capacity to drive improvement — where the main need is structure and tools, not weekly coaching support.
"The biggest shift for us was realising that governance doesn't sit with one person. Once the team built it together — understood the risk register, owned their audit areas, knew what they were responsible for — everything changed. It stopped being something we did before inspections and became the way we work."
CQC Clarity is Level 2. If you need more than structured tools — a complete governance framework, coaching, or a team day — the next levels are designed for that.
104 audits. Two years. A continuous record that shows your practice is genuinely governed — not just compliant on the day.
