Paragraph 15 Care and treatment summaries

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

Where a patient who has been receiving care and treatment under a continuing care arrangement or a capitation arrangement requests the dentist to provide him with a summary of the care and treatment he has received from the dentist under that arrangement because he intends to enter into such an arrangement with another dentist, the dentist shall provide such a summary as he considers appropriate (including details of any care and treatment which could not be easily observed on a visual examination) to the patient on a form supplied for that purpose by the Agency within 28 days of the request.
