Who we work with

The NHSCFA works with a wide range of partner organisations to identify, investigate and prevent fraud within the NHS.

Our key stakeholders include NHS England, NHS Improvement and the Cabinet Office. We work collaboratively with them, as well as with the DHSC Anti-Fraud Unit, to deliver the full range of counter fraud activity across the NHS and the wider health group.

Our relationship with stakeholders is often supported by formal memorandums of understanding and information sharing agreements.

DHSC-NHSCFA framework agreement

The DHSC-NHSCFA framework agreement sets out how the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and the NHSCFA will work in partnership to serve patients, the public and the taxpayer, and how both the NHSCFA and the Department discharge their accountability.

The agreement defines the key elements of our relationship with the DHSC, and in particular the DHSC Anti-Fraud Unit which is our departmental sponsor.

This agreement is available in our working agreements section.
