P4 - Risk of defective work

If you decide to buy a practice, it is worth considering negotiations to cover for the risk of defective work/treatment provided before the purchase took place, by either the dentist selling the practice, or their associates.

Some points to consider:

¨What timescale, if any, should be included in the contract fro making a claim.

¨Should the selling dentists be presented with the opportunity to respond to the allegation of defective work/treatment?

¨Should the contract cover complaints by patients only, or also defective work/treatment discovered by the purchaser?

¨How should compensation be calculated and provided?

¨Should the formula to calculate compensation be different forr NHS and private work?

¨The best course of action is usually to raise this point as early on in the negotiations as possible. Ask your solicitor
