ATTENTION AUSTRALIAN SURGEONS AND DATA MANAGERS – AUSTRALIAN QUALIFIED PRIVILEGE HAS LAPSED

Australian Qualified Privilege (QP) lapsed Thursday 12 JUNE 2025. An application to renew QP was submitted in February 2025. Following an initial review of the application a recommendation by the QP Office has been made to declare the BQA as a qualified assurance activity. As advised by the QP Office however, the next steps of review by the Chief Medical Officer will take approximately 6 weeks to complete and as such we anticipate Qualified Privilege will be reinstated by MID-AUGUST 2025. We recommend that Australian Surgeons and Data Managers refrain from entering cases whilst QP has lapsed as any cases entered during the lapse will not be covered by Qualified Privilege. You can view/edit existing cases but we recommend you do not add a new episode or patient.
