Diabetes: Lancashire
(asked on 3rd February 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what proportion of people in (a) Pendle constituency and (b) Lancashire who have been diagnosed with diabetes are receiving the nine basic monitoring tests.
The information requested is not collected. Although the Health and Social Care Information Centre holds Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) diabetes data, the indicators within the QOF do not match the nine basic monitoring tests.
The table below shows the completion rate for all eight measurable care processes assessed in the National Diabetes Audit (NDA), the number of patients completing all eight care processes and the number not completing all eight care processes. This is provided for the eight clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) in the Lancashire area. Also provided is the participation rate for each CCG.
The care processes are those which the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence recommends should be part of an annual check for people with diabetes.
The data provided is from the 2012-13 audit year.
