what is qofe
The Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) is a voluntary annual reward and incentive programme for all GP surgeries in England, detailing practice achievement results. It is not about performance management but resourcing and then rewarding good practice. The QOF contains three main components, known as domains. The three domains are: Clinical; Public Health and Public Health â Additional Services. Each domain consists of a set of achievement measures, known as indicators, against which practices score points according to their level of achievement. The 2015/16 QOF measured achievement against 77 indicators; practices scored points on the basis of achievement against each indicator, up to a maximum of 559 points.
