  • a n = 317 505 eligible for blood pressure control indicators; n = 196 206 eligible for influenza immunisation.

  • b For patients with 1 condition, payment is the same for every patient; for patients with multiple conditions, payment depends on which ones (≥2) they have. As such, the number shown is the mean for all patients with 2 conditions, and the range is minimum to maximum payment depending on which 2 conditions the patient has. This is the same for higher numbers of conditions.

  • c Range of mean payment per patient for different combinations of condition.

  • d Patients with all four conditions all receive the same payment, so no range is shown.
