The 2022-2025 Quality Improvement Activity Cycle is now live. You will need to complete the following 3 tasks:
Team-Based Reflection
Equality and Diversity Module
Completion of a practice-level workforce census
A Learning Programme has been set up to help you check off each of the above tasks, upon completion eligible Dentists can claim their Quality Improvement Payment. Certificates are provided for each component of the Learning Programme, these should used for the 2022-25 QI Cycle only and not to be used as verifiable CPD.
The first part of fulfilling the 2022 – 2025 Quality Improvement Cycle is a team-based reflection on practices’ implementation of Dental Payment Reform.
The purpose of this exercise is for practices to reflect on ways in which the introduction of the new determination one will enable your team to further improve the quality of care provided to patients. This exercise provides practices with a reflective framework which will guide the development of a practice action plan.
All members of the dental team should contribute to the reflection, including non-clinical members of the team such as practice receptionists and managers. The recommended format for carrying out the reflection is in the form of a practice meeting.
Once the reflection has taken place, a summary report of the reflection should be entered into the Microsoft Forms using the framework provided in the Learning Programme. Only one report should be submitted per practice.
