The latest GMS contract emphasises this in the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) designed to measure and reward key elements of primary care chronic disease management. In this issue of BJPCN we start a new series – Points mean Prizes – on how to make sure you get all the ticks in the boxes for the data you need to collect to get maximum QOF points. The series will provide a step-to-step guide on how to score on the 76 quality indicators in the 10 clinical domains of care.
