Background: To support family physicians (FPs) in managing patients with heart failure (HF), the Ministry of Health Ontario, Canada, implemented Q050 billing code 2008, a pay-for-performance (P4P) incentive for guideline-based HF care.

Introduction Oral anticoagulants (OACs) are widely prescribed in older adults. High OAC-related adverse event rates the early period following hospital discharge argue for an analysis to identify predictors. Our objective is and validate clinical continuity of care variables among seniors discharged from on OAC, which independently associated with events within 30 days. Methods We propose a population-based retrospective cohort study all adults aged 66 years or who were OAC September 2010...
We aim to examine the association between primary care physicians' billing of Q050A, a pay-for-performance heart failure (HF) management incentive fee code, and composite outcome mortality, hospitalization, emergency department visits.
