With a continuous need to deliver improvements alongside value for money, robust data from existing programmes is an invaluable resource for those planning healthcare. Offering assurance where services are safe, effective and compliant with national standards – and identifying where they are not – they provide evidence-based, actionable data to enable you to monitor quality and drive improvements in patient care and outcomes.
National clinical audit and outcomes data should be a central part of commissioning. They can provide ICBs with an evidence base for a data-driven approach to decision making and help providers to drive improvement” Sir James Mackey, Chief Executive, NHS England
In summary, national clinical audits, outcome reviews and registries support you to manage contracts and plan future services by providing:
- Assurance of quality
- Contractual compliance
- Actionable findings
- Evidence of improvement
- Risk management insights.
