FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What documents are required for a new clinic registration?

An authorised signatory certified by the competent authorities, the trade licence, the local sponsor's legal documents, and the facility plan with specialties.

What is clinic preliminary approval?

Preliminary approval is the initial permission from the regional health authority to set up a medical facility at the proposed location with a requested specialty.

How long is preliminary approval valid?

Preliminary approval is valid for one year. The facility must be set up within this period and apply for a permanent licence before it expires.

How is the final approval obtained?

Once the facility is ready to operate, meets all authority guidelines and has hired its professionals, we request the final inspection. A successful report leads to the authority issuing final approval.

How do you prepare for the DHA, DOH or MOH final inspection?

Each authority has its own KPI checklist, though many factors are common. As a Department of Health approved consultancy, Alpha prepares your facility fully for the final inspection.

How long does the whole setup take?

Once we have all the documentation, the process typically takes 8 to 10 weeks. It can take longer if more information is required, and DataFlow verification is handled independently and can add time.
