Defrauding money from the NHS diverts valuable resources away from patient care. All NHS organisations are expected to have robust anti-fraud measures in place to ensure that public funds are spent where they belong.
Parkhill helps clients to develop and maintain sound working practices to identify, manage and combat fraud in order to build a more secure NHS. We work in partnership with you to develop and implement tailored fraud detection,
prevention and
investigation solutions that match your organisation’s needs.
Parkhill’s team of accredited Local Counter Fraud Specialists (LCFS) brings a wealth of knowledge from the police, military and public sectors. In order to provide a robust and responsive service, we operate a dual system whereby clients benefit from a Lead LCFS and a Secondary LCFS. Since our service was launched in 2000, we have achieved consistently high success rates in:
- Guilty verdicts in concluded criminal cases
- Police take up of referred cases
- Client agreement to pursue criminal prosecutions
- Internal disciplinary proceedings as a result from Criminal Prosecution
- Progressing of referrals through criminal / civil proceedings
Using a leading management information system, we track and manage case loads in a way that both reduces administration time and enables user friendly reporting. This maximises staff time for prevention work, including informative fraud awareness training, policy reviews and presentations.
Parkhill has extensive experience of providing counter fraud services to a wide portfolio of NHS organisations including PCTs, SHAs, and Acute, Foundation and Ambulance Trusts. We also provide a single source of liaison between key stakeholders, including internal and external auditors, the police,
Audit Commission, UK Borders and Immigration Agency, the Department of Work and Pensions and Inland Revenue.
