APC consultations

HNY APC and its subgroups hold open consultations on decisions which affect patient care. This may include updated formulary chapters, new or updated clinical guidelines or commissioning statements, or changes to formulary status. All comments received are carefully considered by the group which made the decision, before a final recommendation is made. Decisions are then reviewed by the HNY APC for information or approval, as appropriate.

Consultations typically run for four weeks, and comments are invited from all stakeholders across Humber and North Yorkshire. You can comment on current proposals via the links in the table below.
