Medical assessments are carried out by an independent, third-party supplier. The supplier manages the medical assessors' training and work arrangements, organises for each medical assessment to be peer reviewed by another medical assessor, and is responsible for ensuring that medical assessors continue their professional development.
All medical assessors are General Medical Council (GMC) registered doctors with a license to practise and a minimum of five years' post graduate experience. They are held to strict professional standards set by the GMC and, in addition to their five years’ post graduate experience, assessors must have experience of undertaking a medical and/or disability assessment, and of addressing questions of causation and impact in the context of legislative or policy requirements.

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) publishes annual reports about revalidation and commissioned an independent evaluation of the process over the first three years of operation, published in 2019. This report stated that revalidation rates remain in line with historical averages under the previous renewal scheme and can be found at the following link:
The report also showed that revalidation was considered to be a success with nurses and midwives reporting that they felt it encouraged accountability and pride in their profession. While there was some initial evidence of people over 65 leaving the register, this was likely to be because they were no longer practising and it was not thought that revalidation had been an impetus for practising professionals leaving the register.
The Department does not hold data on the proportion of nurses and midwives that did not renew their registration when it was due. This data is held by the NMC. The NMC publishes an annual leavers survey to understand why people leave its permanent register, alongside annual and mid-year registration data reports.

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) is responsible for nurse revalidation. Revalidation was introduced by the NMC in April 2016 and registrants are required to revalidate every three years. There is no evidence that the NMC’s revalidation process has had any impact on the retention of professionals on its register.
The Department has no plans to carry out a comparative assessment of the potential impact of differences in revalidation procedures in Australia, California and the United Kingdom on retention rates for qualified nurses.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of revalidation procedures upon retention of qualified nurses in the UK; and whether any comparative studies have been carried out in respect of nurses working in the USA.

Revalidation supports public protection by requiring nurses, nursing associates and midwives to demonstrate their ability to practise safely and effectively throughout their career. The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) requires registrants to revalidate every three years by submitting a range of evidence demonstrating their skills and adherence to the NMC Code of professional standards and behaviours.
As the independent regulator of nurses and midwives in the United Kingdom and nursing associates in England, the NMC is responsible for nurse revalidation. The Department has not carried out any comparative studies in respect of nurses working in the United States of America.

On 30 March the Department laid an emergency Statutory Instrument allowing the NMC to respond to the pandemic by adapting some of its operating procedures. The NMC has extended revalidation application dates for registrants due to revalidate in March, April, May or June this year. The extended timeframe aims to ease the immediate pressures on registrants working in frontline services and reduce the incidence of lapsed registrations.
