	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/07/2014 answer text <p>The independent advisory group, the Health Premium Incentive Advisory Group (HPIAG), was set up as a sub-group of the Advisory Committee on Resource Allocation to advise Ministers on which indicators from the Public Health Outcome Framework (PHOF) would be suitable for inclusion in the Health Premium Incentive Scheme (HPIS). HPIAG developed a list of technical criteria to guide this assessment and reviewed all the indicators in the PHOF, including those indicators relevant to diabetes, against these criteria. HPIAG concluded that the diabetes related indicators did not meet the criteria and so would not be appropriate for inclusion in the HPIS.
