The NHS 111 Discovery frailty flagging project utilises Discovery data to flag key information to NHS 111 call handlers to improve the patient pathway and experience, and reduce the unnecessary use of emergency services and admission to A&E.
This project currently includes all patients within Inner East London; City and Hackney, Tower Hamlets, Waltham Forest, and Newham CCGs and uses a frailty algorithm.
Since the project went live in November 2018, the Discovery Data Service has:
- matched 712,331 patients
- flagged 40,187 potentially frail patients
