Health Foundation October 2015
- An independent review for the Secretary of State for Health of indicators of the quality of care provided by general practices in England.
- The report makes a number of recommendations including:
- developing a small set of indicators that show information about what matters most to the public, health care professionals and those accountable for the quality of general practice
- consolidating the multiple existing websites currently sharing information about general practice quality, with information selected and presented to meet the differing needs of health care professionals and the public
- developing a national strategy for improving the quality of general practice and primary care that guides indicator development, with progress assessed through the Secretary of State’s annual report
- providing support to those working in general practice about how to understand and use information to improve patient care
