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.

How should an Abu Dhabi clinic prepare for a DoH inspection?

Verify licensing and scope, reconcile JAWDA submissions to source records, confirm Malaffi consent and access governance, evidence the governance cycle, then rehearse producing documents on request.

Do DoH inspections cover JAWDA data?

Quality reporting sits within the same evidence base as governance and records, so being able to reproduce reported indicators from source records is part of readiness.

Is DoH preparation different from DHA preparation?

The facility, IPC, medication and governance work is broadly comparable. Abu Dhabi adds JAWDA reconciliation, Malaffi governance and PXS patient experience ownership.

How long should we allow?

Three to four weeks for a clinic with existing documentation; longer where JAWDA capture has to be reconfigured in the EMR rather than corrected.

How to Prepare for a DoH Inspection

Preparing for a DoH inspection in Abu Dhabi follows the same evidence logic as Dubai, with three additions: your JAWDA submissions must reconcile to source records, Malaffi consent and access governance must be current, and patient experience obligations under PXS need visible ownership. Work through licensing and scope, policy control, records and consent, IPC, medication and facility safety — then rehearse producing the evidence.
