Counter Fraud Policy

This policy and response plan forms part of the Partnership Agreement between NHS Scotland Counter Fraud Services (CFS) and NHS Lothian. It is not intended to replace existing policies and response plans, but its content may influence future iterations. This document defaults as a protocol to guide employees and managers on an approach to countering fraud, bribery and corruption that is consistent with the Partnership Agreement and the Counter Fraud Standard. This protocol will be reviewed to align with the period of each Partnership Agreement.
