The Trust has a new team in place from RSM Risk Assurance
Services to monitor fraud.
They will be producing regular bulletins
called Notice Fraud to inform staff about actions, successes and
alerts.
Fraud costs the NHS millions and directly
impacts on patient care.
If you have suspicions that fraud may be
occurring or wish to receive further information about the above
please contact your Local Counter Fraud Specialist (LCFS).
Alternatively you can report any concerns to
NHS Protect on 0800 028 40 60 (between 8am and 5pm, Monday to
Friday) or via the online reporting form: http://www.reportnhsfraud.nhs.uk/
All information provided via this secure website is completely
confidential.
It is the LCFS’s role to take every allegation
of fraud or bribery seriously and to provide anonymity and
confidentiality for anyone who reports a concern. It is recommended
that you refer to the organisations policy on fraud when reporting
allegations for further information on how you are protected.
