Generation and QOF Report

Mail Gateway is responsible for automatically running the daily QOF reports for the nGMS Contract audits.

There are two tabs in the middle right pane relating to clinical audits:

Generation Tab

The Generation tab shows the date and the time that your QOF audits were last run and when they are next scheduled to be run:

  • If the audits have been run, Audit Generation states The GPES QOF Report extraction was last run on DD/MM/YYYY at hh:mm.
  • If the audits are currently being processed, it may say Processing Daily Audit Report Started - hh:mm shown in red. In the bottom left pane under Generation Progress, it details how far the generation has reached, eg Preparing generation, followed by Counting "Smoking last 'informed dissent' recorded more than 15 mths before reference date" for 18 June 2018 (the final date being the date of generation).
  • If the audits have not yet been run, Audit Generation states The GPES QOF Report extraction has not yet run:

  • Generation also displays the last time a generation was run and when the next generation is due, for example, Monthly Mar 2012. Next daily run today at 01:01, last run 17/06/2012.
Note - Waiting for Clinical Audit to be closed displays in the bottom left if a generation is due to run, and is held up because someone is using the Clinical Audit module.

QOF Report Tab

The QOF Report tab directs you to the GPET (England) and CQRS (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) websites for information regarding your QOF reports. The tab states QOF Reports are managed by the GP Extraction Service. Go to the GPET-Q or CQRS web site for information on this practice's QOF Reports.

Note - England, remember you need your Smartcard to log into these services and gain access to your practice's data.
Note - Scotland - The SCI extract box is temporarily hidden by an audit generation in progress.
