QOF Smoking Rules Assessment Guide

This document outlines the smoking rules for the Quality and Outcomes Framework rule set version 13. It provides a decision tree to determine if a patient's smoking status has been recorded and whether the indicator has been achieved. It checks various disease registers, age ranges, and timeframes to establish if a patient's smoking status needs to be recorded or if the indicator is already satisfied. The tree ultimately determines whether data is required or the indicator has been achieved with no further action needed.
