UK Reflective paper There is uncertainty<br />
if the QOF has made<br />
a difference to<br />
patient care. Authors<br />
plead for more<br />
incorporation <strong>of</strong><br />
skillful<br />
communication as<br />
Europe and<br />
USA and<br />
Canada<br />
Selection from lists <strong>of</strong><br />
existing indicators by<br />
a modified Delphi<br />
technique among<br />
experts to arrive at a<br />
European set <strong>of</strong><br />
indicators for<br />
primary care (which<br />
encompasses GP)<br />
UK Secundary analysis <strong>of</strong><br />
the QOF related to<br />
contrcat <strong>status</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

Europe Qualitative study to<br />
develop a faciliting<br />
model for quality<br />
development.<br />
UK Secondary analysis <strong>of</strong><br />
QOF and routinely<br />
available data<br />
part <strong>of</strong> the QOF.<br />
Indicators were<br />
drawn from the<br />
USA, UK and<br />
Canada. After first<br />
appreciation 270<br />
indicators were<br />
identified out <strong>of</strong><br />
more than 1000.<br />
Authors report high<br />
time constraints. The<br />
paper helps<br />
understanding<br />
international trends<br />
and policies towards<br />
quality care<br />
QOF scores tend to<br />
be lower among<br />
practices that have a<br />
larger part <strong>of</strong> fixed<br />
payments for<br />
services not in the<br />
QOF<br />
The Matury<br />
Matrix{Elwyn, 2004<br />

model designed to<br />
assess organizational<br />
development in<br />
general practice<br />
settings and<br />
stimulate quality<br />
development.<br />

Small practices were<br />
more likely to be in<br />
underprivileged<br />
areas. They contain<br />
as many clinical<br />
indicators but have<br />
lower achievement<br />
on organizational<br />
indicators
