Book Description
The Quality and Outcomes Framework has deeply divided UK general practitioners. I commend this book and applaud its determination to scrutinise every aspect of the Quality and Outcomes Framework - good and bad and in-between. - From the Foreword by Iona Heath General practice in the UK faces transformation following the introduction of the Quality & Outcomes Framework (QOF), a pay-for-performance scheme unprecedented in the NHS, and the most comprehensive scheme of its kind in the world. Champions claim the QOF advances the quality of primary care; detractors fear the end of general practice as we know it. The introduction of the QOF provides a unique opportunity for research, analysis and reflection. This book is the first comprehensive analysis of the impact of the QOF, examining the claims and counter-claims in depth through the experience of those delivering QOF, comparisons with other countries, and analysis of the wealth of research evidence emerging. Assessments of the true impact of QOF will influence the development of health services in the UK and beyond. This book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the future of general practice and primary care, including health professionals, trainers, students, MRCGP candidates and researchers, managers, and policy-makers and shapers.

Book Description
This paper sets out an approach to including quality when measuring the output of primary care medical services. The paper makes a proposal for how to adjust the National Accounts measure of GP output, based on number of consultations, to take account of quality change. It identifies a framework for quality in primary care medical services and discusses data sources including the Quality and Outcomes Framework. It proposes a method of quality adjustment for clinical care based on partial outcome indicators, which are supported by other research as areas where primary care medical services can improve patients life expectancy and quality of life. It analyses preliminary results from January 2002 to July 2004, from the QRESEARCH database of over 3 million patient records, for data underlying the QOF indicators for blood pressure control and cholesterol control for patients with coronary heart disease, and blood pressure control for patients with hypertension (jointly covering about 13% ...

Purchasing is championed as key to improving health systems performance. However, despite the central role the purchasing function plays in many health system reforms, there is very little evidence about its development or its real impact on societal objectives. This book addresses this gap and provides: ·A comprehensive account of the theory and practice of purchasing for health services across Europe ·An up-to-date analysis of the evidence on different approaches to purchasing ·Support for policy-makers and practitioners as they formulate purchasing strategies so that they can increase effectiveness and improve performance in their own national context ·An assessment of the intersecting roles of citizens, the government and the providers Written by leading health policy analysts, this book is essential reading for health policy makers, planners and managers as well as researchers and students in the field of health studies.
