North West London National Waiting List Clock Starts

Restoration of elective activity is one of the highest priorities for NHS England and NHS Improvement following the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. Understanding the composition of the waiting list is critical to managing restoration within North West London. Data will be collected via data submissions made by each individual provider of NHS Acute healthcare services in North West London. This dataset includes data from Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust, London North West Healthcare NHS Trust and The Hillingdon Hospital NHS Trust. Data will be processed under an Information Sharing Agreement between North West London CCG and each organisation. Data submissions will be processed and used for the following purposes: 1. Developing a visual display of the waiting list composition (Elective Waiting List Data Dashboard). 2. Developing a data quality improvement programme with providers. All RTT pathways with a clock start date after 23:59 on Sunday 4th April 2021 and before 23:59 on the Sunday of the reporting period and not recorded to date (in a previous submission).
