About the scheme

The National Health Service Mediation Scheme follows a successful pilot operated by CEDR in 2014/15 that proved mediation is an effective way of resolving disputes between patients and the NHS.

This service offers those parties involved in disputes, which are often highly emotive and have a large personal impact, the opportunity to have their dispute resolved in a way which allows for discussion of the impact felt by individuals in their lives and a settlement which can include more than just financial compensation.

Process
