There is still a lot of confusion around Personalised Care Adjustments (PCA’s) and Exceptions and when to use them. PCA’s were introduced in April 2019, to differentiate between adjusting care and removing a patient from a denominator.
PCA’s are automatically applied following the use of appropriate invite codes. Exception codes, both top level and single indicator codes, have to be added as and when appropriate – examples include allergy or patient declined codes and most need to be added each year if they still apply.
We also have ‘exclusions’ to throw into the mix – these apply for definitional reasons, for example newly diagnosed and newly registered patients or patients within a specific age range.
Many of these ‘codes’ are essential for patient care & practice income, they stop you being penalised for areas outside of your control so it is important they are used accurately.
- Is this still a bit of a muddle for you?
- Would you benefit from a refresh?
- Are you relatively new to QOF and would benefit from a complete overview of all of the above and more?
