WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW?

  • The Quality Payment Scheme is the new addition to the

pharmacy contract

  • It is a voluntary self assessment covering a number of

areas: Patient safety, Patient experience, Public Health, Digital, Clinical effectiveness, and Workforce

  • If pharmacy can achieve good results in the Quality

Scheme it will benefit the sector in moving toward a service lead future

  • Asthma is an area where community pharmacy can a

huge difference to good patient care

  • The Clinical effectiveness Quality Payment – ‘over use of

asthma (reliever)treatments’ is likely to be worth circa £1,700

WHY IS ASTHMA BEING TARGETED FOR MUR’S AND NMS ?

  • 5.4 million people in the UK are currently receiving

treatment for asthma: 1.1 million children (1 in 11) and 4.3 million adults (1 in 12).

  • Asthma prevalence is thought to have plateaued

since the late 1990s, although the UK still has some of the highest rates in Europe and on average 3 people a day die from asthma.

  • In 2014 (the most recent data available) 1216

people died from asthma.

  • The NHS spends around 1 billion a year treating and

caring for people with asthma.

  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the

name for a collection of lung diseases, including chronic bronchitis, emphysema and chronic

  • bstructive airways disease.
  • It affects an estimated 3 million people in the UK.

BENEFITS OF MUR’S / NMS

  • improve medicines adherence
  • increase patient engagement with their condition

and medicines, which will support them in making decisions about their treatment and self management

  • reduce medicines wastage
  • reduce hospital admissions due to adverse events

associated with medicines

  • increase reporting of medicine adverse reactions

by pharmacists and patients

  • positive patient assessments
  • provide evidence base on the effectiveness of

the service

  • enable the development of outcome and/or

quality measures for community pharmacy

  • For MUR’s limited to 400 per year can generate

£11200.

  • NMS is unlimited range £20 - £28 per intervention.

WHY FOCUS ON ASTHMA AND COPD FOR MUR’S AND NMS ?

  • To access Quality payments the

contractor must be offering MUR’s or NMS or be registered for NHS Urgent Medicines Supply.

  • Over 90% of pharmacies provide Mur’s

and NMS.

  • Results of a Independent academic

evaluation (2014) gave a positive reinforcement for the service with improved patient outcomes and reduced cost for the NHS.

PART OF THE QUALITY PAYMENTS !

  • Asthma patients dispensed more than 6 short

acting bronchodilator inhalers without any corticosteroid inhaler within a 6-month period are referred to an appropriate health care professional for an asthma review.

  • There are two review points for this criterion:
  • · Friday 28th April 2017; and

· Friday 24th November 2017.

  • At each review point, meeting this criterion is

worth 10 points (£640), therefore a total of 20 points (£1,280) can be claimed in 2017 for achieving this criterion.

CHALLENGES FACING THE PHARMACY TEAM

  • How will we monitor "reliever "
  • veruse is Asthmatic patients.
  • How will our referral pathway to

GP's be made to ensure a clinical review is undertaken.

  • How will we keep to targets and

deadlines.

  • How will this information be

recorded in our Pharmacies.

CPPE SUPPORT .

  • The Centre for Pharmacy Postgraduate

Education (CPPE) has a distance learning course and e-assessment on asthma, as well as inhaler technique training e- learning and videos, which pharmacists

  • r pharmacy technicians may find

useful to complete before incorporating the QP criterion into their daily practice.

ASTHMA BTS GUIDELINES.

  • While you would normally recommend the

NICE COPD guideline over the GOLD guideline, the NICE COPD guideline is out of date, having not been updated since 2010.

  • NICE undertakes a more comprehensive review of

the evidence and prepares their guidance in the context of the English/Welsh NHS.

  • NICE also involves GPs and nurses in developing their

guideline.

  • The next review of the NICE guideline was scheduled

to start in May 2016 , so we cannot expect a revised version until late 2017 or early 2018.

  • Clearly there have been many new treatment
  • ptions introduced since 2010, which are therefore

not covered by NICE currently.

SAFEGUARDING .

  • Safeguarding training is a staff training

requirement for many locally commissioned services, such as emergency hormonal contraception.

  • The General Pharmaceutical Council

has also stated that pharmacy professionals and the pharmacy team working in community pharmacies are well placed to identify people who may be vulnerable.

  • Level 2 safeguarding training may be

available to pharmacy staff via local training sessions organised by Clinical Commissioning Groups, NHS England, local authorities or other providers, including in-house training.

  • Alternatively, the CPPE Safeguarding

children and vulnerable adults e- learning and e-assessment meets the level 2 requirements.

ONE LAST THING ?

  • One of the Quality Payment criteria

is:

  • ‘On the day of the review 80% of

registered pharmacy professionals working at the pharmacy have achieved level 2 safeguarding status for children and vulnerable adults in the last two years.’
