Quality and Outcomes Framework 2006-2007 Data tables

This links to datafiles containing National, SHA, PCT and practice level data tables. The Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF), is a voluntary annual reward and incentive programme for all GP surgeries in England which is part of GP contracts. Results of GP practices' achievement against the QOF are published each year. The QOF is not about performance management, but resourcing and then rewarding good practice. For 2008-2009, a total of 8,229 GP practices in England are included in the published results, covering almost 100 per cent of registered patients in England. The QOF has four main components, known as domains. Each domain consists of a set of measures of achievement, known as indicators, against which practices score points according to their level of achievement.
