NHS Employers and BMA GPC updated QOF guidance
The 2016-17 QOF changes have now been incorporated into the guidance from NHS Employers and the BMA GPC.
There were minor amendments made to QOF for 2016-17, they are:
- An adjustment to the value of a QOF point taking account of population growth and relative changes in practice list size from 1 January 2015 to 1 January 2016. The national average list size as of 1 January 2016 is 7460 and the value of a QOF point for 2016/17 will be £165.18
- No changes to thresholds for 2016/17
- No changes to QOF indicators
In next year's negotiations NHS Employers and the GPC will discuss ending QOF in its entirety.
