The FFT indicator incentivises providers to implement the FFT scheme and to achieve good response rates; the dementia indicator requires providers to undertake a carer survey; and the mental health indicator involves a specific process of national clinical audit, facilitated by the Royal College of Psychiatrists.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>CQUIN applies to all providers who operate under the NHS Standard Contract.
