ACCEA
Consultants Clinical Excellence Awards for England and Wales (ACCEA) 2012
The Department of Health have not yet confirmed that the 2012 round of ACCEA awards will go ahead or notified us of the date when the 2012 online applications system will be available. However, it has been confirmed that there will be a round for renewal applications and ACCEA will be expecting renewals from those who:
- have awards that were granted in 2008, 2003, 1998 and 1993
- are on an annual renewal owing to reinstatement of their award after a return to work following retirement
- failed to renew their award in 2011 Round
- submitted inadequate evidence to justify renewal in the 2011 Round.
ACCEA will write to consultants who need to renew their award when the round is launched. However, the onus is on the award holder to ensure the award is renewed at the correct time.
FPH set its own deadlines for theoretical new awards in order that applications could be read and submitted to committee to be ranked and citations agreed. The application process for theoretical new awards has now closed and as such no applications, citations or ranked lists will be accepted in any circumstances. The submission process will not be re-opened should new awards go ahead.
For further information please refer to the Department of Health's ACCEA web page.
