The NHS generates a vast amount of data which, when effectively collated and analysed, can drive significant improvements in patient care and service delivery. In the current climate, the need for robust data management and insightful analysis has never been more critical. Initiatives like the Federated Data Platform (FDP) are emerging to support this need, with 70 trusts expected to adopt localised instances by the end of this year and plans to expand further in 2025 .
The ongoing emphasis on consistent national data reporting and analysis is pivotal in enabling teams across the NHS to leverage their data assets for actionable insights. By harnessing data effectively, healthcare professionals can improve patient outcomes, improve operational efficiency, and address systemic challenges within the health service.
This award will celebrate those harnessing the power of the data they hold to bring about positive change in the delivery or planning of care, or a substantial improvement in patient outcomes. Winning projects will showcase the successful implementation of new systems or processes driven by analysis and insight.
