Freedom of Information Request – Ref: FOI 255-2122
Thank you for your recent Freedom of Information request. Please find our response below.
1. We’re currently scoping what other NHS organisations are reporting around Patient EDI data and how it’s being presented. What data, if any, do you report on internally in relation to patients e.g. • Protected Characteristics
• AIS /access needs
• Analysis of patients on waiting lists / referrals
• Intersectionality e.g. with diagnoses, postcode etc • Anything else?
We can then see whether we are currently recording similar data and how complete our data sets are if we are recording it. Patient EDI data as we know is a complex area with challenges which we’re all navigating. We capture the following and can report internally on:
• Protected Characteristics
• Analysis of patients on waiting lists/referrals
• Diagnoses
• Postcodes
