QOF Disappointment
On first reading through the new QOF documentation for 23/24 I’m slightly disappointed clinically. For some of the Cholesterol and Heart Failure indicators they seem behind current guidance. e.g. they talk of a non-hdl-c target of 2.5 but the actual guidance talks of delivering a 40% reduction from baseline.. The heart failure talks about beta blockers but current standard of care appears to be the so called 4-pillars of care inc SGLT2s etc and this could mean people missing out on valuable treatments.
Perhaps gives a role for local schemes that go above and beyond.
