Who we work with

Although we are a National Scheme, there are differences in the way concerns about practitioners are managed in New South Wales (NSW) and in Queensland (Qld).

Concerns about a practitioner’s health, performance or conduct

In NSW, concerns about a practitioners’ health, performance or conduct are managed by the NSW regulators, the Health Professional Councils Authority (HPCA) and NSW Health Care Complaints Commission (HCCC).

In Qld, the Office of the Health Ombudsman (OHO) manage concerns about practitioners. The OHO receives all notifications and concerns about practitioners, retains the most serious matters and may refer other matters to Ahpra and a National Board.
