SearchQI Calendar
Our QI calendar is designed to help your practice focus on regular activities to meet your PIP requirements and achieve improved patient outcomes.
Each month will feature a different health issue that corresponds with a national health event (eg. Mental Health Week).
You only need to take one activity per quarter, so simply select one month per quarter that is most relevant for your practice and follow the instructions.
You can also view the QI quarter dates and payment months below. Please contact your PCLO if you would like support in using this QI calendar.
QI months by health event
January | Healthier living and reducing BMI
We have around 621,500 people in our region. Nearly 40% of them (app. 243,600 people) have a BMI over 30, which is considered obese.
Following a holiday season full of 'good cheer' and the start of New Year's resolutions aimed at counteracting the impact of that good cheer, people can be more motivated to take steps to improve their health and their weight in January.
February | Heart Health
Heart disease is still Australia’s leading cause of death and affects families and communities around the country.
In our region, 4.6% of patients have reported they had heart disease (including heart attack or angina). This is higher than both the Queensland (4.2%) and national (3.9%) averages.
March | Women's Health
The theme for International Women's Day in 2025 is 'Accelerate Action.' Collectively, we can accelerate action for gender equality.
In our region, 52.1% of women aged 50-74 participated in breast screening, which is lower than the national (64.7%) average.
April | Immunisation
World Immunization Week, celebrated in the last week of April, aims to highlight the collective action needed and to promote the use of vaccines to protect people of all ages against disease.
In our region, 44% of patients were fully immunized against influenza, and 36% against COVID-19.
