PART IIAGREEMENTS
Entering into an agreement2.
An agreement may be entered into only where it complies with the terms of Schedules 1 and 4.
No undue compromise3.
No agreement shall be entered into where that would unduly compromise–
(a)
the right of any person in the Health Board’s area to choose the medical practitioner from whom that person is to receive medical services; or
(b)
the scope of the Health Board to require a person to be assigned to a performer’s list,
having regard to the need of the Health Board to ensure that the number of performers who are primarily responsible for the performance of personal medical services is such that neither the right nor the scope is unduly compromised.
Withdrawal from an agreement4.
Any provider may withdraw from an agreement by giving the Health Board not less than 3 months notice in writing of their intention to withdraw.
Variation of an agreement5.
A Health Board and provider who have entered into an agreement may, after following such procedure as may be set out in the agreement, vary it by a further agreement in writing.
Publication of Details of an Agreement6.
A provider shall display at every premises from which personal medical services are provided by the provider a notice containing the information set out in Schedule 2.
