Prescribing for GORD
There has been a rapid increase in PPI prescribing in recent years, and controlling the cost and improving the quality of prescribing is an issue of concern. Hence, the National Prescribing Service (NPS) conducted a clinical audit of prescribing of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The audit is recognised for the Quality Prescribing Initiative of the Practice Incentives Program for the year 1 May 2009 to 30 April 2010.
