Our Methodology
IDENTIFY
We identify patients that require the Trust’s attention, be these patients at potential risk of clinical harm, records that can be removed from the waiting list, or records that require a correction.
RECTIFY
We validate the records identified utilising our Clear PTL validation management software, collecting information on all validation findings and outcomes to provide insights into the root causes of the data quality issues.
PREVENT
We use the intelligence provided through the validation activity to address the root cause issues so that they can be rectified, preventing recurrence and ensuring sustained improvements.
“We have worked with Source Group for a number of years around providing validation services and have built up a great relationship. When Source offered us a free of charge pilot we were excited to try it out and saw immediate significant increases in removal rates, allowing us to prove the concept and procure the product. Mobiliisation is very quick and easy. The solution has increased validation removal efficiency by 400%. It put us in a great position for the NHSE National Sprint. We used existing validation resource for the sprint and slightly exceeded the internal target, above the NHSE baselines, we had set ourselves. Our only approach to the sprint was to use the Clear PTL Targeted Validation Solution and we are continuing with the same approach for sprint 2. The staff really enjoy using the solution, as they can see the high removal rates and effects of all their hard work. The weekly suite of reports we receive provides great specialty level business intelligence and is really helping us to demonstrate to the business the root causes, supporting us in getting it ‘right first time most of the time’. This has been an absolute game changer for RTT validation!.”
