1. To provide University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust (UHCW) with the means to undertake clinical benchmarking against their peers for the following themes: a. Length of stay at a HRG sub-chapter level across elective and non-elective activity b. Emergency admission rates at a HRG sub-chapter level c. The proportion of outpatient new attenders who are followed up (first to follow-up ratio) for every clinical specialty. d. Elective care activity volumes at a specialty and HRG-sub-chapter level. e. A&E activity volumes at a HRG level. with the overall aim of helping UHCW to identify variations in practice and efficiency opportunities. 2. To provide UHCW with the means to undertake clinical coding benchmarking analysis which specifically focuses on reviewing casemix differences from the perspective of ICD and OPCS coding. 3. To provide UHCW with the means to undertake market share analysis, with a specific focus on: comparing elective care, non-elective care and outpatient care activity volumes for the Trust compared to peers. UHCW Trust falls within the Midlands and East Commissioning Area, this is the area that will be used in regards to market share analysis to understand how activity across the region has changed and what effect this will have on UHCW’s operation. The Trust will be undertaking benchmarking analysis against Trusts within the Association of University Hospitals (AUKUH) group. These trusts are similar sized to UHCW, all teaching hospitals like U…

Expected benefits, as published

Objective One – Undertaking benchmarking against peers – to be achieved within 3 months of the report being made available to the users, i.e. UHCW internal colleagues. • By comparing Length of stay at a HRG sub-chapter level across elective and non-elective activity, this will enable UHCW to quantify the opportunities available for reducing hospital length of stay at UHCW. • By comparing Emergency admission rates at a HRG sub-chapter level, this will enable UHCW to quantify the opportunities available for reducing short stay admissions at UHCW. • By comparing the proportion of outpatient new attenders who are followed up this will enable UHCW to quantify the opportunities available for reducing unnecessary follow-up outpatient activity at UHCW. • By comparing Elective care activity volume…

Limitations: Agreement as recorded in an NHS Digital register of approved data releases (2014–2019), retrieved from the UK Government Web Archive. That register lists releases made in its period and the agreement's purpose statement as it then stood; it gives no agreement dates, and the agreement may have changed since.
