Please note financial penalties may be imposed on providers who don’t complete this requirement.
Who needs to update the tracker
CQC registered adult social care providers are required to update the tracker on a monthly basis (as detailed above).
This is a requirement enforced under section 277A of the Health and Social Care Act 2012.
