On Friday, September 23rd, 2023, the CQC unveiled further insights into their strategy for gathering evidence within the new framework, with a primary focus on the quality statements and the methodologies for assessing the quality of healthcare services.

It’s important to note that this information is currently in draft form, with ongoing engagement with providers for feedback. Inspections under the new framework will not commence until these details are finalised.

For your convenience, we have gathered the information provided by the CQC from their website and organized it into evidence tables. You can download these free of charge.
