RAIDR
(reporting analysis and
intelligence, delivering
results)
The North of England Commissioning
Support Group developed this electronic
tool to identify the most vulnerable 2%
of people.
It extracts data from secondary and
primary care and combines this to
determine if someone is at high, medium
or low risk of admission to hospital.
RAIDR was developed in collaboration
with GPs and clinical leads, integrating
previously isolated data sources into a
single tool. It is now being used across
40 clinical commissioning groups (a
patient population of almost 11 million)
to inform decision making.
