Services

Three ways to engage. Prices depend on list size and scope, so they are agreed before anything starts rather than published here.

Engagements

  • Case finding sprint

    You choose the cohorts. I build and run the searches, check each candidate against the record, and hand back a validated list together with the search logic behind it, so the practice can re-run it later without me.

    Practice does
    Provides access; a clinician reviews the list.
    Timescale
    One to two weeks from access being granted.
    typical output
    • 40–120 candidate rows, depending on the cohort and list size
    • each row carries a coded evidence trail and a confidence rating
    • ready for EMIS batch add-on and export to Excel
  • Register and diagnosis audit

    A full sweep rather than a single cohort: prescribing patterns that imply a diagnosis nobody coded, results that crossed a diagnostic threshold and were never actioned, and patients carrying a diagnosis the record does not actually support.

    Practice does
    Provides access; reviews findings; agrees which corrections to make.
    Timescale
    Three to four weeks for a typical list size.
    typical output
    • register-by-register findings across the paying QOF domains
    • miscoding candidates split by add / remove / recode
    • before-and-after prevalence estimate for each register touched
  • Recall process setup

    Searches, templates, batching and a written SOP, handed over so the practice runs it without me. Aimed at the patients who fall outside the usual QOF and enhanced service invitations: those newly identified in case finding who now need monitoring, and those due screening who have never been invited.

    Practice does
    Nominates an owner; runs the first cycle with me.
    Timescale
    Two weeks, plus one cycle run together.
    typical output
    • reusable EMIS searches, batched into monthly cohorts
    • consultation templates for each recall reason
    • written SOP covering ownership, cadence and DNA handling

What is not included

The practice verifies every finding. The practice contacts patients. The practice makes every clinical decision. What I produce is a list of candidates and the evidence behind each one — it is a starting point for review, never a diagnosis and never an instruction.

Beyond the paying registers

Hypothyroidism, epilepsy, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis rarely change what a practice is paid, but the patients are just as real and the registers just as wrong. These can be added to any of the work above as quality improvement — clean register, safer recall, no income change.

Starting

One cohort at no charge, so you can judge the output against your own register first.
