Description

The GDC has appointed an independent research organisation for it's Public and Patient Panel 2022-2024 call off contract. There is no commitment to commission work underneath the panel , therefore the estimated value of the contract is £0 - 120k plus VAT.

The panel will enable the GDC to involve and engage public and patients in a range of co-productive research and policy work.

The contract will run for 2 years from April 2022.

The overarching aims for the panel are:

- to provide access to a group or groups of patients and the public, some of whose knowledge and understanding of GDC and dental regulation develops over time;

- to ensure we reflect and harness the input of public and patients in as much of our work as is possible; and

- to provide a flexible, responsive and cost-effective method for GDC to engage patient and public in our work.

There are three main objectives for public and patient engagement in our work:

- to provide independently facilitated evidence about public views and perceptions of topical or current issues in dental regulation;

- to provide independently facilitated public and patient views on their experience of the quality of dental services;

- to obtain independently facilitated public and patient feedback about regulatory research and policy initiatives or communications being considered, developed or undertaken by the GDC.
