In one of the less predicted side effects of swine flu QOF is to be unchanged for 2010/11. In the deal on swine flu vaccination it has been agreed that no changes will be made and the NICE recommendations will be popped into the cupboard until needed again.
Additionally the patient experience thresholds will be moved by an unspecified amount for practices that achieve an unspecified rate of vaccination. A little more work needed there I suspect.
These changes may be worth as much to practices, until 2011 at least, as the actual fee for giving the jab.
