  1. NICE CG127: Implementation in Primary care Dr Terry McCormack, Whitby

  2. Will GPs follow the Guidance? • NICE CG018 2004 • NICE CG034 2006 • NICE CG127 2011?

  3. Will GPs follow the Guidance? • NICE CG018 2004 • NICE CG034 2006 • NICE CG127 2011?

  4. Will GPs follow the Guidance? • NICE CG018 2004 • NICE CG034 2006 • NICE CG127 2011? • Professionalism? • Incentives – QOF?

  5. Effect of pay for performance on the management and outcomes of hypertension in the United Kingdom: interrupted time series study: Serumaga, B et al. BMJ 2011 • THIN database (The Health Improvement Network 358/470,725) • January 2000 to August 2007 • QOF introduced April 2004 • Using G20 code x2 • Centiles systolic/diastolic BP over time • Number of measurements performed • Blood pressure control • Treatment intensity • Cardiovascular outcomes BMJ 2011; 342:d108 doi: 10.1136/bmj.d108 (Published 25 January 2011)

  10. Results/Conclusion • No change in activity • No change in outcomes • Pay for performance had no effect • NICE - CG018 2004 may have influenced GP performance

  11. Limitations • EMIS practices – sociodemographic population but ?higher performance GPs • G20 code = those we intend to treat and try hard (excludes many TOD patients) • Code cleaning was taking place • No measure of exception reporting • Too soon to see change • Short period for outcomes study

  12. Interpretation • Professionalism won over incentivisation • GPs already applying a better standard? • Influence of NICE guideline 2004? • Many practices will have been trying to get ahead of the game • For many QOF meant recording what we did, poorer practices had to change the most • Needs updating

  13. Quality Outcomes Framework

  14. Quality Outcomes Framework

  15. NICE CG127 2011? • Have we changed and become ruled by QOF? • Treatment algorithm logical and easy to apply • Spironolactone requires a leaflet advising care when dehydrated or suffering diarrhoea/vomiting • Advice to treat over 80s will challenge some doctors preconceptions • ABPM is the biggest hurdle • Capital cost • Logistics • Mindset change from repeat visits/measurements

  16. New QOF hypertension target pilot • As a result of a letter from BHS Executive • Target remains at 150/90 for those aged 80 or more • Lower targets remain for CKD, Diabetes
