Abstract
The 2021 Pharmaceutical Prescription Quality Index (IQF) consists of a battery of 21 indicators, one of which includes 5 sub-indicators, with specific improvement objectives for each of them and weighted according to their contribution. to the overall improvement of the quality of the pharmacological prescription. For this year 2021, the IQF applies to the areas of care management (AGA) and also to different lines of care: primary care teams (EAP) and specialized care providers (UP) - hospitals. The composition of the IQF, the distribution of points between indicators and the score of each indicator is specific to the AGAs and for each care line. Some of the IQF indicators described in this paper are also included in the specific IQF for Adult Mental Health Centers (CSMA).
