      • Influenza/H1N1 Data Quality Audit (Version 16009, 15/02/10)

        In the QOF audits version 15 Rules, there are no provisions made for patients that have been given the Swine flu immunisations. This will cause all the flu areas in the audit to select patients with seasonal flu immunisations and also H1N1 immunisations. This has been corrected in version 16 of the QOF Rules and H1N1 immunisations will be excluded from the flu searches.

        In the meantime, we have created a Data Quality audit that will pick up patients that were given an H1N1 immunisation but NO seasonal flu immunisation. This will be released in version 15 of the Data Quality audits.

        Testing on some practice have revealed that this audit can miss out some eligible patients and we have made some changes to the search to make it more accurate. We decided to release this one line of the H1N1 Data Quality audits now to aid practices with flu searches. The new line will be version 16009 and will import as part of an existing Data Quality audit or it could stand alone if you do not have any Data Quality audits imported.

      In version 12014 of the DES audits, we were requested to hard code the DES audits dates up to the 31 March 2010 to assist with year-end reporting. In the new version 12015 we have removed the hard coding and once again are reporting the figures up to the date the audit was generated.

      Additionally, we have created another Ethnicity DES audit which provides more detailed information on language and ethnicity than the current audit. This Language and Ethnicity version 12015 audit is imported separately to the DES audit so it can be used independently or as part of the DES audit.

INPS have written this audit which will allow practices to set reminders on patients where data is missing and do the preliminary work required before a risk can be calculated.

      The H1N1v Swine Flu Vaccine Uptake Reporting audit and Call and Recall audit will give different results for the group of women defined as currently pregnant.

      In the Swine Flu Reporting audit patients who have any pregnancy or ambiguous code (see PRIMIS+ Criteria) after 01/02/09 and before 01/10/09 and who do not have a delivered code before 01/10/09 will be included in the currently pregnant group. Also, patients who have any pregnancy or ambiguous code on or after 01/10/09 regardless of any subsequent delivered code will be included. If a patient has a pregnancy or ambiguous code between 01/02/09 and 01/10/09 and has delivered AFTER 01/10/09 they will still appear in the pregnancy risk group for reporting purposes. This is based on the PRIMIS+ specification and will ensure that ALL patients who could have been given the immunisation are included for reporting purposes.

      The search criteria for the Swine Flu Call and Recall audit is different in that patients who have a pregnant or ambiguous code between 01/02/09 and 01/10/09 and a delivered code after 1/10/09 will not be included in the pregnant women risk group. Practices requested that this should be the case for the call and recall audit to avoid sending letters to patients who are not longer ?currently pregnant?. However we would advise caution in using this line of the audit without double checking the status of the patient, as reports from practices seem to suggest that getting delivery information about patients is less than accurate.

      • H1N1 DES JCVI Group (Version 9, 02/03/10)

        We have been advised that in the previous version of the JCVI audit, the sum of figures of the various month?s immunisations was not equal to the top Total line. The reason for this was that the top line was looking at all patients in the last 6 months counting back from the time the audit ran and will miss some patients that were on the clinical risk register before then. We have now changed the total line to show the total sum of the various months instead. We have also added some lines in the audit to show patients that had two immunisations with the same stage recorded so that they can be rectified.

        Following the publication of the Directed Enhanced Services for H1N1v Vaccination, INPS noted that the audits already written for the collection of vaccination data for HPA/HPS reporting were insufficient to report also the information required under the DES. An additional audit has been written which will allow you to report on a monthly basis ALL patients who have been vaccinated that month, including the Surname, Forename, DOB, Date of vaccination and clinical indication for inclusion in the at-risk community. Vision will be upgraded in the New Year to include the NHS Number.
