Proven governance
for better care.
Asterix uses proven, industry-leading clinical governance to deliver a safe, and high-quality service.
GP Led
Our clinical service is led by Chief Medical Officer & GP Partner Dr Dan Bunstone, and developed in collaboration with leading primary care providers throughout the country.
CQC approved
To ensure the highest level of clinical quality, our audit and assurance processes have been approved by the CQC as part of our CQC registration.
Always learning
We embed learning & development in all parts of the process. This allows us to deliver better work, in collaboration.
Above & beyond
Delivering the right outcomes for patients and practices means that we never settle, and go the extra mile to make a difference today.
"Our governance model is built through collaboration — every partner practice helps define what great looks like"
Our Governance Framework is built on 5 pillars
We exist to support primary care providers of all shapes and sizes. Working with a qualified, remote workforce enables providers to deliver better care for patients.
GMC-equivalent recruitment process
We have a rigorous recruitment and onboarding process that ensures every Doctor is fully background-checked, trained and ready to deliver high-quality care.
Independent clinical competence verification
We support our doctors from onboarding, through to ongoing development, ensuring they deliver safe, high-quality care.
Patient safety, ensured
Our governance team provides round-the-clock oversight to maintain safety and quality at scale.
Our Accreditation Programme is delivered in collaboration with leading NHS primary care providers.
Doctors train within real NHS primary care environments whilst being supported by Asterix’s clinical operations teams during sessions. This hands-on structure ensures safety, system familiarity and clinical readiness before deployment to partner practices.

Safe care, the Asterix way
Safe care at Asterix comes from doing the basics brilliantly - consistent auditing, open reporting and turning every learning into better care for your patients.
Our Key Benefits
Patient safety ensured
Safety is central to our model. We review clinical work carefully, maintain transparent reporting and embed learning across the team to support consistently safe care within your practice.
Audits that raise the bar
Your practice gets complete visibility. We start with full 100% auditing, then maintain a rolling 5% review. It’s a rigorous process, designed to give you confidence that every clinician is delivering safe, high-quality care.
Learning in action
We keep things open and honest. Every incident is looked at with care, and the learning is shared so the whole team grows. After your practice signs a doctor off, we’ll keep you updated with regular reports bringing together our 5% audit checks.
No two practices are the same. We recognise that.
We co-create governance with each partner practice to ensure seamless, safe integration. Our governance framework extends beyond clinicians — it’s built in partnership with every practice we support. We work closely with customers to co-design systems that embed safety, transparency and clinical consistency from day one.
