Quest Browser

• The Quest Browser solution allows PCTs to
  provide incentive schemes, data collection
  schemes, data quality initiatives and NSF related
  support to practices.
• The Audits, their read codes, and their output
  format can be modified to suit the requirements
  of individual PCTs
• The GMS Contract Set provides comprehensive data
  to practices to help them maximise their
  achievement. This solution provides everything
  from points calculation to action lists, a diary,
  and mail-merge letters.
• Practices using this audit are provided with
  continuity if they change clinical system
  suppliers. The audit works in the same way no
  matter which LSP solution they use.
• PCTs can collect audit results electronically,
  and provide an aggregated picture not only for
  the nGMS contract, but for all audits.
