Mae'r Ysgrifennydd Iechyd hefyd wedi cymryd camau i leddfu'r pwysau ar feddygon teulu drwy lacio elfen y Fframwaith Ansawdd a Chanlyniadau o gontract y practisau cyffredinol tan ddiwedd mis Mawrth 2018. Mae'r penderfyniad yn cydnabod effaith pwysau'r gaeaf nid yn unig ar y gwasanaeth iechyd, ond ar feddygon teulu a'r tîm Gofal Sylfaenol ehangach ledled Cymru. Bydd y camau a gymerir yn galluogi meddygon teulu a nyrsys practis i reoli'u cleifion mwyaf agored i niwed a chleifion cronig yn ystod y gaeaf.
The Health Secretary has also taken action to relieve pressure on GPs by relaxing the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) element of the GP contract until the end of March 2018. The decision recognises the impact of winter pressures not only on the NHS, but on GPs and the wider Primary Care team across Wales. The action being taken will enable GPs and practice nurses to manage their most vulnerable and chronically sick patients during the winter period.
