Professionalism versus state regulation?
Over the past decade, UK governments and the medical profession have made progress in reforming the way medicine is regulated.
This lecture will consider myths about, and definitions of the key terms used to regulate medicine and the professionals who operate within it. Drawing on recent research, Professor Allsop will look at approaches to medical governance in a range of countries. She will discuss how practice elsewhere provides insights into regulatory approaches and consider the need to adapt reforms to national cultures.
The Professor will talk about national politics and the economic implications of new regulatory policies and consider the specific situation in England. Here partnership governance and regular relicensing and revalidation are in place, but there has also been a move away from policies to regulate the regulators.
