Lot Information

Lot 1

Historically patient records are individually reviewed for the purpose of clinical audit. Along with the introduction of an electronic patient records solution (ePCR), a clinical audit data solution was introduced several years ago, to integrate data from paper and electronic records across the Trust into an intuitive database of clinical records for audit and analysis purposes. The Trust require a holistic data solution system, which encompasses all associated processes related to the primary and secondary use requirements for patient data. The system will need to interact with several existing systems including CAD and ePCR, to allow call audits, clinical audits and associated patient records to match to the incident details held. Information captured at the time of 999 and 111 calls will combine with data captured on the patient clinical record to automate the data collection processes and reporting requirements for national auditing and internal audit purposes. Feedback to clinicians, call takers and other Trust departments must also be facilitated through the system. The system must provide access to all Trust staff, through a simple log in process, with robust role-based access controls, visibility of data and secure onward transmission of data . The system must also support full Information Governance/Data Protection legislation requirements.

Renewal: Initial 3 year term with options to extend for 2 further 1 year periods
