The short film below explains more about how HealtheIntent is helping improve health and care in north central London.

Helping identify gaps in care

HealtheIntent uses agreed standards of high-quality care to look at the care given to a particular group of residents, like those with the same long-term condition, and whether there are any gaps in care. For example, for diabetes it shows measures relating to the effective management of care for patients with diabetes, such as assessing BMI or conducting regular eye and foot exams, and because it has up-to-date relevant information, it alerts clinicians to any gaps.

HealtheIntent can also analyse the care given to our local communities to identify any important differences. This helps professionals to identify any specific actions that need to be taken to improve care. It can also be used by health and care professionals directly involved in a patient’s care to create lists of people for review or follow up.
