Dashboard Views There are a range of different dashboard views available as standard within the system. The expandable list view (HED Signals, NHS Choice Indicators, Nationally Published Indicators and the composite view (HEDlines). HED Signals provides an at-a-glance picture of an organisation s performance in specific patient groups. This view is customisable and the HED team have already worked with existing customers to identify organisational priorities and translate these into a customised signals page. HEDlines provides a holistic overview of performance across key dimensions of,, Financial Opportunity and. From this view Users are able to interact with the system to view exception reports or review across the complete range of indicators. Email Alerts The HED Dashboard views can be complemented by automatic email notifications customised to alert you if performance indicators reach a level pre-defined by the end user. This allows the end user to ensure that the right people are alerted to a potential issue. Tailored alerts complementing dashboard notifications are pushed to users via email. It is also possible for you to set different thresholds for different users, strengthening accountability.
Modules Modules within HED are broadly categorised across the areas of, Operational Efficiency, and Financial Opportunity. Dynamic drill down functionality is available across all areas to allow you to understand the route cause. monitoring within HED has been developed in collaboration with consultants, nurses and healthcare managers to support the continued observation of clinical outcomes. Mortality Monitoring is an essential part of assuring high quality clinical care. The main ways in which standardised mortality is monitored by regulating bodies and external entities are included within HED. This includes the Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio (HSMR), the Summary Level Hospital Mortality Indicator (SHMI) & Cumulative Summary (CuSum) Control Chart. Standardised Mortality Models are re-run with the most recent national data set every month. Additionally bespoke views developed for specific patient groups with clinician input. Outcomes monitoring in key areas e.g. VTE is supported and the team are always looking to expand the range of areas covered. Indicators are complemented with statistical measures denoting the indicators status to allow trusts to understand their outlier status. Using the modules it is possible to highlight patient groups within trusts requiring investigation or monitoring, and then to drill through enabling detailed investigation and route cause analysis. The HED Efficiency Modules focus on effective use of resources. These methods and indicators take the form of: Readmission rates (Related readmissions, Avoidable readmissions, Post surgical readmissions for specific causes), Outpatient efficiency gains (New/Review appointments, Did Not Attend ratios), Length of Stay (Pre-op, Post-op, Standardised). indicators developed by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), translated to an ICD-10 English Health data set, may be reviewed within the Indicators Module. Whilst the Incidents module draws data reported to the National Reporting and Learning Services (NRLS) to allow incidents of harm to be benchmarked nationally. In understanding Market Share the system allows users to identify particular trends in catchments for distinct procedures/referral diagnostics/ payment groups and disease settings. The system automatically alerts users of their relative market share fluctuations within particular catchments boundaries for particular disease entities. These are set to GP s and PCT s at the present moment, however will change based upon the future health economic boundaries, and can be tailored for local CCG information. All of the reports allow the export of information in either CSV, PDF or image file format. Whilst the My Favourites functionality allows end users to save analytics file templates which are continually updated at the click of a button.
