Change of Ownership and FTP (Fitness to Practice) Application

SUPPORTING YOUR APPLICATION

Keeping You Compliant with the GPhC and the NHS

A change of ownership for the purposes of the National Health Service (Pharmaceutical and Local Pharmaceutical Services Regulations 2013 (the Regulations) covers the situation where the legal identity of the pharmacy contractor has changed.

Applications to open new pharmacies usually involve two parallel, related applications. The market entry application, for example, to establish a new NHS pharmacy, and a related fitness information application, to ensure that the new owner of the pharmacy (corporate or individual/partnership of pharmacist(s)) is a fit and proper person to own an NHS pharmacy. In many cases, fitness information is required from existing contractors.

Our team at Healthcare Plus are experts in managing Change of Ownership and Fitness to Practise (FTP) applications, helping you stay compliant with GPhC and NHS regulations while minimising disruption to your pharmacy.
