Direct Access Clinicians (DAC)

A DAC is a hygienist or therapist who has been authorised by the patient to create and send NHS Claims. To do this, the DAC must:

• Be a member of an active NHS contract.
• Have their Personal and GDC numbers entered into Sensei Cloud.
• Have a defined non-dentist DCP role, such as Therapist, Hygienist, Dental Nurse, or Clinical Technician. 

Entering DCP Information on a Claim

When you are entering or updating NHS claim information, use the Dental Care Professionals entry field to select the DCP from the list of performers.
