answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/11/2018 answer text <p>All providers of National Health Service-funded healthcare services are expected to meet a range of national standards, other operational standards and quality requirements. These are set out in the NHS Standard Contract along with the consequences of breaches of these. In many cases, the consequence would be a financial sanction.</p><p> </p><p>Since April 2016, most NHS providers agreeing to meet financial control targets as part of the sustainability funding programme are exempt from such sanctions. However, any revenue withheld is reinvested in the local healthcare system.</p> answering member constituency Wimbledon answering member printed Stephen Hammond question first answered 21/11/2018 14:47:35 answering member 1585 label Biography information for Stephen Hammond

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/11/2018 answer text <p>Several different quality incentive schemes operate in the National Health Service.</p><p> </p><p>The Quality and Outcomes Framework is a voluntary pay for performance scheme within the general practitioner contract. It focuses upon improving the care of patients with one or more of 25 long term conditions. In 2018, NHS England undertook and published a Review of the Quality and Outcomes Framework which drew upon published evidence to evaluate its effectiveness and identify opportunities for reform. The recommendations made in the report are the subject of ongoing discussions with the General Practitioners Committee of the British Medical Association.</p><p> </p><p>The Commissioning for Quality and Innovation (CQUIN) and Quality Premium schemes are intended to drive improvement by providers, and are administered by clinical commissioning groups and NHS England. The indicators in both are routinely reviewed as part of the NHS Planning Round to ensure that the schemes reflect the latest clinical priorities.</p><p> </p><p>CQUIN has demonstrably helped secure improvements in certain areas: e.g. sepsis and venous thromboembolism management, hepatitis C treatment and staff flu vaccinations. However, we are also aware that some indicators have been less impactful, for example where we have pursued complex service changes or goals without a standard implementation method. The schemes are being reviewed with a view to changes in 2019/20.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 21/11/2018 14:43:31 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
