Quality and Outcomes Framework

Delivering our messages to 10 Downing Street. Lord Black, Claire Severgnini, members Anthea Franks, Val Napier, patron Lynn Faulds Wood and member David Brookfield

"Osteoporosis affects three generations in my family – more should be done to prevent this devastating disease and to help future generations to build stronger bones."

My GP doesn’t understand the effects of fractures caused by osteoporosis. I have lost five

inches in height, my body has changed and it has knocked

my confidence." "Osteoporosis deserves the same attention as other long-term conditions. More and more people are living with fragile bones and the government needs to take action."

Clear, concise information on all aspects of osteoporosis management

How to implement QOF, and much more
