Whilst #PQS guidance was viewed as valuable, there was some duplication and confusion. Particularly independent pharmacies found PQS workload burdensome and complex.

Those in practice felt there was a lack of feedback and impacts were not visible; frontline pharmacy teams were often unaware of #NHSE publications on PQS impacts.

PQS was largely viewed as positively impacting pharmacy teams, clinical practice, and patient care, but increasing workloads across the sector made focus on quality challenging.

Purpose of #PQS was recognised as patient safety, patient experience, and clinical effectiveness. Consistency of service provision, sustainability, and wider system integration were also considered important.

Nearly all chain pharmacies participated in #PQS, with much lower engagement from independents (16.5%).

#PQS evaluation, quality incentive scheme for #communitypharmacy in England, published. Positive impacts on practice, but not always evident to those doing PQS. Income stability important. Concerns over complexity and time involved in completion.
