    Introduction

    This consultation paper includes proposals for general practice level indicators suitable for use in QOF on:

    • Annual review and maintenance and reliever therapy (MART) for people with asthma at risk of poor outcomes.

    • Supporting antimicrobial stewardship in people with common infections.

    • Recording of ejection fraction category for people newly diagnosed with chronic heart failure and four pillars of treatment

    • Annual BMI recording in people with long term conditions.

    • Cervical screening frequency.

    Stakeholders are asked to consider the following questions when commenting on the proposed indicators:

    1. Do you think there are any barriers to implementing the care described by these indicators?

    2. Do you think there are potential unintended consequences to implementing/ using any of these indicators?

    3. Do you think there is potential for differential impact (in respect of age, disability, gender and gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, and sexual orientation)? If so, please state whether this is adverse or positive and for which group.

    4. If you think any of these indicators may have an adverse impact in different groups in the community, can you suggest how the indicator might be delivered differently to different groups to reduce health inequalities?
