Now that salaried GPs can have their own prescriber number it should be possible to obtain prescriber data and this kind of formal analysis whilst good practice in any case could also be considered important for revalidation.
There are a number of things that I am investigating with regard to prescriber data.
How many employed GPs actually do have their own prescriber number?
Can Freelance GPs have a prescriber number?
Would PCT pharmacy advisers be interested in running/giving input to sessional GP analysis of prescribing?
