The Services are to be performed virtually using MS Teams or another appropriate secure video conferencing tool. In certain circumstances, if requested by DWP and by prior agreement, appraisal discussions may take place in-person.

Date(s) of Delivery: Each appraisal year shall run between 1 April to 31 March annually and all appraisals of the medical practitioners shall be completed by 31 March each year.
