Against really tough competition across all Government departments in the UK, we are incredibly proud to announce we won the Government Project Delivery Innovation Award for the NDRS submission portal.
The submission portal ingests data from fourteen different data sets across the NHS*. It has allowed standardisation of a safe submission process, which can provide validation and reporting up front which has enabled providers to take ownership of their data before submission. It provides three ways to submit data; Upload, web form and API. It reduces burden on the front line and for ourselves, by having a functionality that streamlines and simplifies data submission. It includes real-time validations – 1000’s of validations for 12 data sets, a large proportion of these are written once and reused to improve data quality.
A staggering 14,192 batches (each batch can contain multiple files) of data have been processed to date and COSD records for over 1.4 million patients have flowed through the portal.
Being able to collect this data nationally is hugely beneficial. For example, it has transformed our work on Lynch syndrome and the development of a National Lynch Register to coordinate care on a national scale, improve patient outcomes, and reduce inequalities.
Huge congratulations to the IT team, data liaison and everyone else involved. For more information please contact us at [email protected]
*Data sets collected are (BRCA, COSD (main data set), COSD_XML (pathology), RTDS, SACT, UPATH, GEN_REQ, GRAIL, USS, LYNCH, BIOCHEM, NIPT, PREG_LOSS, ENOTE).
