Health Inspectorate Wales registration

Registration for MyHealthChecked's tests demonstrate compliance with national
standards

 

MyHealthChecked PLC (AIM: MHC), the consumer home-testing healthcare company,
announces that it has received a Notice of Decision confirming that
MyHealthChecked is now registered with the Healthcare Inspectorate Wales
('HIW'). To achieve this status, MyHealthChecked has gone through a rigorous
process to ensure that all of the Company's processes are compliant with
national regulatory standards in Wales in relation to oversight of test
results, and the provision of phlebotomy services.

 

Healthcare Inspectorate Wales (https://www.hiw.org.uk/
(https://www.hiw.org.uk/) ) is the independent inspector and regulator of all
healthcare in Wales (NHS and independent healthcare providers). Being
registered with HIW provides MyHealthChecked's customers with assurance that
the Company is performing to the highest standards of compliance, as agreed by
an organisation that is independent, fair and evidence driven, and committed
to taking action to improve poor standards, whilst also recognising good
practice. It also provides confidence to MyHealthChecked customers that the
Company is independently regulated and will provide safe, timely and good
quality care and the needs of customers are prioritised.

 

Registration with HIW is essential for MyHealthChecked to provide doctor
oversight for MyHealthChecked blood and blood/urine tests, as well as enabling
it to offer phlebotomy services through B2B retail partners. The Registration
covers all the tests in MyHealthChecked's new product portfolio.

 

Penny McCormick, Chief Executive Officer of MyHealthChecked PLC, said:
"Receiving this accreditation from Healthcare Inspectorate Wales provides
MyHealthChecked and our partners with the assurance that we are deemed to be
operating to the highest standards. This registration from an independent body
also further validates the quality of our at-home wellness testing service and
our commitment to patient care. This is an essential precursor to any
nationwide launch of the products into a retail partner."
