Organisations we regulate
We assess most applications in the order we receive them.
We may give priority to your application if it's critical to either:
- increasing capacity in the health and social care system
- helping manage winter pressures in the NHS or social care
Evidence we need
If you need to start your service urgently, we need written evidence. This must be from either your:
- NHS trust
- integrated care board
- local authority
This evidence must:
- explain how the service will meet a critical capacity or urgent care need in their area
- be on official headed paper or sent from a gov.uk or NHS email address
We do not accept evidence from:
- individual social workers
- MPs or individual local councillors
Nor do we accept, as the only justification to prioritise an application:
- financial information from an accountant
- a provisionally-awarded contract from a local authority.
Submit the evidence
Send a scanned copy of the evidence letter or the email to us.
