Summary
This bulletin presents a summary of data from the national Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF), which was implemented in General Medical Service (GMS) and Personal Medical Service (PMS) practices from April 2004. The figures are derived from the Quality, Prevalence and Indicator Database (QPID), held by the Health and Social Care Information Centre. QPID data is obtained from the Quality Management Analysis System (QMAS), a national system that uses data from general practices to calculate individual practices' QOF achievement.
