The Plan has the overarching objective of improving outcomes for people with respiratory disease, including asthma.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England supports the national asthma audit programme that provides data on a range of indicators to show improvements and opportunities for further improvements in asthma outcomes.</p><p> </p><p>The recently published general practitioner (GP) contract has made improvements to the Quality and Outcomes framework through the introduction of quality improvement modules. This replaces the current system of exception reporting with a personalised care adjustment approach, which will better reflect individual clinical situations and patients’ wishes. NHS England and GPC England have agreed to an ongoing programme of indicator review in key priority areas, including asthma in 2019/20. Through the GP contract and Primary Care Networks, clinical pharmacists will take responsibility for the care management of patients with chronic diseases and undertake clinical medication reviews to proactively manage people with complex polypharmacy, and those with multiple long term conditions, in particular people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma.</p><p> </p><p>National programmes such NHS RightCare are using leading edge medical evidence and practical support to help local health economies to make best use of their resources and using tested evidence based processes to make sustainable improvements to patient care. As part of this programme, a RightCare asthma pathway will be published in the spring which will outline the optimal pathway for patients, including the need for follow-up appointments following emergency care.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 14/03/2019 17:01:30 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
