“Risk Stratification" (Population Health Management and Case Finding) |
Otford Medical Practice performs computerised searches of some or all of our records to identify individuals who may be at increased risk of certain conditions or diagnoses i.e. Diabetes, heart disease, risk of falling). Your records may be amongst those searched. This is often called “risk stratification” or “case finding”. These searches are sometimes carried out by Data Processors who link our records to other records that they access, such as hospital attendance records. The results of these searches and assessment may then be shared with other healthcare workers, such as specialist, therapists, technicians etc. The information that is shared is to enable the other healthcare workers to provide the most appropriate advice, investigations, treatments, therapies and or care. Risk stratification can be grouped into two purposes namely: Direct Care – ‘Case Finding’ where carried out by a health professional (e.g. GPs and Provider) involved in an individual’s care or by a data processor acting under contract with such a provider, it is treated as direct care. Indirect Care - understand the local population needs and plan for future requirement. The source of the information shared in this way is your electronic GP record. Data Retention Period All records held by the Practice will be kept for the duration specified in the Records Management Codes of Practice for Health and Social Care. |
