question text	To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Markham on 30 January (HL1523), what assessment they have made of the impact of the fact that analysis of abortion complications data published by the Department comparing (1) Abortion Notification System data on complications arising from at home medical abortions, and (2) Hospital Episode Statistics inpatient admissions data on abortion complications does not include treatment in both inpatient and outpatient settings following discharge from the abortion service.
tabling member printed	Lord Jackson of Peterborough
uin	HL2191
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2024 answer text <p>No assessment has been made, as high-quality data on outpatient treatment for abortion complications is not available. The analysis reviewed Abortion Notification System and Hospital Episode Statistics data on complications for all abortions. It did not specifically analyse data for complications following at home early medical abortions as Hospital Episode Statistics data on abortion complications does not record where the abortion was performed. Data completion on treatment of women as outpatients following a termination is considerably lower than the data for inpatient treatment. Including the incomplete outpatient data available in our analysis would have produced inaccurate results for this population.</p> answering member printed Lord Markham question first answered 09/02/2024 12:22:51 answering member 4948 label Biography information for Lord Markham

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government (1) how many National Clinical Audits and Patient Outcome Audits there are currently in NHS England under the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership; (2) what percentage of care costs and English disability adjusted life years these audits cover; and (3) which diseases currently have patient reported outcomes, and which will have by next year.
tabling member printed	Lord Freyberg
uin	HL2191
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2017 answer text <p>NHS England has advised that there are 38 projects currently within the National Clinical Audit and Patient Outcomes Programme (NCAPOP) Portfolio, which are at different stages of the commissioning cycle and comprise of 30 National Clinical Audits (NCA) and six Clinical Outcome Review Programmes or Mortality Review Programmes.</p><p> </p><p>The audits’ primary focus is not care costs or disability adjusted life years. The audits are predominately based upon National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) evidence-based guidelines, technology appraisals and quality standards. NICE takes into account both clinical and cost effectiveness (mainly Quality Adjusted Life Years) where appropriate, and the clinical evidence exists to enable this. The audits commissioned by NCAPOP use the NICE evidence-based outputs as a foundation for the metrics collected so that where possible the audits are based upon a sound pre-existing evidence base. The exception where care costs are investigated is health economic work undertaken by the Sentinel Stroke National Audit Programme.</p><p> </p><p>The following NCAs include patient reported outcomes (PROMS):</p><p> </p><p>- the National Audit of Psychosis, awarded in March 2017, will collect PROMs in year two of its contract (2018-19) and will likely report these at the end of 2019 as part of the annual report;</p><p>- the National Rheumatoid and Early Inflammatory Arthritis Audit, which ran from 2013 to 2016, collected data on PROMS (capturing disease activity and impact of disease). This audit has been recommissioned (contract commenced October 2017) and will once again incorporate PROMs. It is due to report in year two of its contract (2018-19);</p><p>- the National Ophthalmology Audit is undertaking a study to examine the feasibility of collecting cataract PROMs data. This will likely be published in 2018-19;</p><p>- the National Bowel Cancer Audit has undertaken a study to examine the feasibility of reporting PROMs. This is expected to be published later in 2017; and</p><p>- the National Prostate Cancer Audit has collected PROMs data, which is likely to be reported in 2018. The project is being recommissioned and there is currently provision for a national collection of PROMs and patient reported experience measure data within year three of the new contract (2020-21).</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 31/10/2017 15:04:08 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy
