Event Details

** This event has now passed **


Lipid targets have now been included in QOF for the first time in almost 10 years.

The AHSN NENC, along with partners, have been working for the last 3 years, as part of a national programme, in this clinical field. We have developed tried and tested resources and ways of working to support primary care. With new lipid lowering therapies available, it is an exciting time to be working in this clinical area, supporting patients to reduce their cholesterol and avoiding cardiac events.

This half-day, free event will help you gain more knowledge and confidence, hearing from those with lived experience, supporting you to achieve lipid QOF targets. Objectives of the event include:

  • Achieve QOF
  • Screening more patients
  • More patients using HIST and novel therapies
  • Knowing where to find supporting tools and resources including education
  • Making more appropriate referrals to secondary care re FH
  • Increased confidence in lipid management.
