Maximise your QOF points
Our expert speaker will:
- Provide practical tips on achieving maximum QOF points in chronic pain areas such as diabetic neuropathy
- Focus on the points to be reallocated in the 2011/12 GMS Contract.
CPD towards appraisal and revalidation
The recent RCGP guide to revalidation stated that GPs must achieve a minimum of 50 CPD credits per year through a variety of methods, including educational events. Each hour of learning is equal to one credit, while demonstrating the impact of this learning doubles these credits.
Guidelines briefings provide up to 2 hours of CPD along with the tools to help you demonstrate impact and double your credits, including:
- A digital summary presentation and handouts, which will allow you to brief and share information with your practice.
