National QOF Consultations Get Underway

The first of the national QOF consultations organised by NHS PCC on behalf of the Department of Health took place in London this week. Dr David Colin-Thomé, national director for primary care opened the proceedings with a confident assessment of the future development of the QOF as NICE prepares to take on the role of developing clinical indicators to increase the framework's effectiveness in improving health outcomes. Presentations from the event are available here. A full report on this and the event taking place this week in Leeds will be available in the next issue of the PCC Newsletter.
