Northgate and Sollis will support Gloucestershire and Swindon in their strategic objective of identifying patients who could most benefit from earlier, better informed health care interventions. The Sollis commissioning intelligence toolset allows the patient population to be risk assessed to provide timely, evidential data to GPs. This enables GPs to provide focused levels of care to specific groups of patients, reducing the risk of a patient's condition worsening due to it being identified early.
Sollis Clarity Commissioning software incorporates the Johns Hopkins University's Adjusted Clinical Groups (ACG®) System which assists clinicians in identifying and improving the care of at-risk patients. Sollis Clarity Patients integrating ACGs, allows health care professionals to plan future demand by providing real time lists of patients who are at high risk of future hospital admission. The algorithm uses disease codes, primary and secondary care usage, patient demographics and medication prescribing to rank patients into different risk bands. For CCGs the commissioning intelligence delivered provides vital insights into the management of patients with Long term Conditions.
Andy Gordon-Jones, Northgate Public Services, commented, "Using data to identify early healthcare interventions will provide significant benefits to patients, particularly those with long term conditions. Providing the functionality to make real time decisions based on clinical evidence will improve outcomes for patients."
Nigel Slone, Managing Director at Sollis says: "We are delighted with the successful deployment and that Gloucestershire and Swindon CCGs have selected Clarity Patients for this important transformational project. We share the vision of the clinicians on the ground, which is to make a positive difference to the lives of the patients they serve."
