Oct 2020

NHS England Clinical Reference Group (CRG) Stakeholder Registration opened on April 3, 2019, and will continue till December 31, 2020.

CRGs could also advise on innovation, horizon scanning, service reviews, and guide work to reduce variation and deliver increased value. CRGs, through their Patient and Public Voice (PPV) members, also help ensure that any changes to the commissioning of specialized services involve patients and the public.

Registration is possible for all stakeholders, including patients, carers, service users, members of the public, clinical staff, provider organizations working in specialized services, and voluntary sector partners.

Registration is available via the online form, which requires contact details and areas of interest. Also, in case of any difficulties, the Communication and Engagement Team may be contacted via england.voice-crg@nhs.net
