Data Analysis Toolkit (DAT)

The Data Analysis Toolkit is the most powerful analysis tool we have developed.  Designed to give you total flexibility in the comparative analysis you can perform, DAT lets you run bespoke queries to unlock the true insight behind your data.  We have designed DAT specifically for information and performance specialists, or managers and clinicians that enjoy the freedom to interrogate data themselves.

Whether you are a clinician looking to support consultant appraisal and relicensing, an information specialist addressing national efficiency and quality targets or trust board member evidencing submissions to Monitor and the Healthcare Commission, this unique tool gives you the flexibility you need.

DAT gives you:

• The power to interrogate activity data with total flexibility
• The opportunity to create tailored data outputs for wider use than ever before
• The power to build bespoke queries for use in analysing, driving and monitoring performance
• The ability to select peer comparisons from any acute trust included in HES, including one to one comparisons

With DAT, you can:

• Filter using over 40 fields including procedures and diagnoses
• Tailor outputs, selecting from over 50 data fields
• Run instant queries and schedule weekly or monthly recurring queries
• Schedule queries to run when your trust submits data
• Change peer comparisons depending on the query (e.g. select a different peer for tertiary services)
• View outputs on screen or save CSV files for export, further manipulation and distribution
• Receive e-mail reminders with hyperlinks to the outputs when tailored queries are complete
