Doctors and Dentists Review Body 2015/16 evidence

Health Education England (HEE) welcomes the opportunity to once again submit evidence to the Doctors and Dentists Review Body (DDRB) as part of its national process of gathering evidence from interested parties to inform the recommendations for 2016/17.

We greatly appreciated the opportunity to meet to review and discuss the handling of the evidence round for 2014/15 with the Review Body Secretariat last month, and also to be able to present formally to members at the recent DDRB Strategy Day. These sessions have proved helpful in enabling us to reflect further on how we can best support the work of the Review Bodies going forward. To this end it was also useful to meet with colleagues from the secretariat, the Department of Health, HSCIC and NHS Employers last month to consider how we can work together further to improve the way we collect, share and use data.
