What is a DHA primary care audit?

A DHA primary care audit evaluates a Dubai outpatient clinic against Dubai Health Authority standards covering safety, quality, access, workforce, digital health (NABIDH), governance and patient experience. BHC automates this across 12+ domains with evidence capture and a maturity score.

What is DoH JAWDA compliance for primary care in Abu Dhabi?

JAWDA is the Department of Health Abu Dhabi performance and quality framework. BHC scores Abu Dhabi polyclinics and family medicine practices against the 8 DoH Core Pillars including JAWDA KPIs, public health and the 2026 Patient Experience Standard (PXS).

Does BHC support both Dubai and Abu Dhabi clinics?

Yes. BHC is a dual-emirate platform with native frameworks for Dubai (DHA, NABIDH, EJADAH, PQR 2025) and Abu Dhabi (DoH, JAWDA, PXS 2026).

What clinics use BHC?

BHC is built for primary care providers including polyclinics, family medicine centres and outpatient clinics across Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

What documents should a Dubai clinic keep ready for a DHA inspection?

Facility and professional licences, the controlled policy register, clinical audit and incident records, consent and records samples, IPC and sterilisation logs, medication and fridge logs, equipment maintenance certificates, and staff training files.

How often should we run through this checklist?

Monthly for the log-based items — fridge, sterilisation, emergency drugs — and at least quarterly for the full list, since DHA visits are unannounced.

Can we use a generic checklist from another clinic?

Only as a starting structure. Findings usually come from policies and checklists that were never localised to the clinic's own rooms, roles, equipment and activity list.

Does BHC provide this checklist scored against our clinic?

Yes. The BHC audit scores each domain, references every finding to the exact DHA document, and returns the report within 24 hours of submission as standard.

DHA Inspection Checklist for Clinics

A working DHA inspection checklist is organised the way an inspection runs, not the way a filing cabinet is arranged: licensing and scope, governance and policy control, clinical records and consent including NABIDH, infection prevention and control, medication management, facility and equipment safety, and staff competence. For each line, the test is the same — can the clinic produce current, attributable evidence within a few minutes of being asked?
