Health Practitioner Regulation National Law on the standards library
When a Board asks by written notice, a practitioner provides practice information for current and all previous practice: whether self-employed, each premises address and business name and practitioners sharing premises and costs; each entity with which they have a practice arrangement (including volunteer arrangements) with contact details; and any other names used. Failure without reasonable excuse is not an offence but grounds for action.
- Maintained list of practice locations, business names and practice arrangements, past and present
- Copy of the practice information notice returned to the Board
- Volunteer or sessional arrangements left out of the response
- No record of former practice addresses, so the response is incomplete

Completing this worksheet records what your practice holds and where. It does not make a practice compliant or ready for audit, and it is not legal advice.
