Free CPD for General Optical Council registrants in England: Guidance on how to use early re-test codes 1-6 on GOS forms in England.

We have released 6 CPD articles that provide guidance on how to use early re-test codes 1 to 6 on GOS forms in England. These articles are aimed at GOC registrants in England.

Each CPD article guides you through the process of submitting early re-test codes on GOS forms and covers:

  • GOS claiming and NHSBSA (NHS Business Services Authority) PPV (Post Payment Verification) activity
  • what the re-test code specific to that article is used for
  • examples of the appropriate use of that specific early re-test code
  • best practice for submitting a GOS1 or GOS6 form

Each article provides half a non-interactive CPD point and will take approximately 30 minutes each to complete.

To gain half a CPD point, you must read the article and then pass the Multiple-Choice Questionnaire (MCQ) assessment with a score greater than 60%. The link to the MCQ assessment is at the end of each article.

GOC registrants in England can access all 6 articles and complete the CPD assessments using the links on our Guidance on how to use early re-test codes 1-6 on GOS forms in England webpage.
