To meet this regulation, providers must make written information available about any fees, contracts and terms and conditions, where people are paying either in full or in part for the cost of their care, treatment and support. This can be assessed as part of a CQC inspection, and the CQC has the power to prosecute providers for a breach of the whole or part of this regulation. The CQC will refuse registration if providers cannot provide satisfactory assurance that they can and will continue to comply with this regulation.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 04/12/2017 11:15:11 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
