National Clinical Impact Award (formerly ACCEA)
Recently there have been changes to the National Clinical Impact Awards (NCIA) scheme which have affected all supporting bodies, like the Society. Supporting bodies are no longer permitted to provide written citations in support of applications from our membership or community.
The Society is acutely aware that our role in past NCIA rounds was viewed by members as extremely useful and as such as we are keen to provide some level of support. Whilst official scoring and peer reviewing of applications is no longer allowed, the Society is permitted to review applications against a checklist which the Advisory Committee on Clinical Impact Awards (ACCIA) has provided.
Guidance for applicants
For those considering an application to this year’s NCIA we recommend you read through the guidance for applicants and also consider the BMA’s guidance on the financial implications of an award.
Important dates
The awards are open from 3 March 2023 to 28 April 2023.
For colleagues who would like to have their application reviewed against the ACCIA's checklist, please email John Jones by Monday 27 March.
