Can general medical practices in the UK can be indirectly with MSO?

Does anyone know if general medical practices in the UK can be indirectly controlled by an MSO operated by people not registered as doctors, as well as a few doctors as industry experts? As in the MSO charges a variable rate and essentially sweeps the accounts and thereby controls the cashflow and makes the business desicions while a physician is the owner and responsible for clinical descisions? If yes how would one make sure the doctor owning the medical practices that operates under the MSO would not go against the MSO?

Best regards

Thank you for your answers everyone. I did find out it is possible and an American company called Opprose is doing it. Cheers!

Thanks Luke. I am not familiar with MSO practices in the UK, but what I have read is as you describe, the administrative and management component is handled by the MSO and clinical decisions by physicians directly. As for doctors leaving, well I believe the arrangement is handled through a contract that would dictate terms if such a situation were to arise.
