Ensuring accurate patient information

QAS' data integrity solutions are widely used throughout the NHS. Typically integrated within Patient Administration Systems (PAS), QAS solutions help users capture, validate and input accurate patient name and address data with the minimum of keystrokes.

Improved data quality means better patient care. QAS, together with its parent company Experian, can help NHS organisations with many of the issues associated with patient administration by:

• cleaning and re-formatting addresses within legacy databases
• identifying duplicate records
• highlighting invalid NHS numbers and dates of birth

Many national systems such as NHS Direct, the National Blood Service and the Electronic Staff Record benefit from the use of QAS solutions.
