PHM Data Analytics (Optum Pathfinder)
Please find attached a letter introducing the Population Health Management (PHM) platform being rolled out across North East London, supported by Optum.
The letter provides key information for GP practices about how the platform will support PHM and the next steps to sign up to use, including:
- Identifying at-risk cohorts using linked data
- Enabling targeted interventions through the Optum Pathfinder tool
- How re-identification works safely within practices
- Information governance assurances
This is part of our wider communications to ensure practices are informed, supported, and confident in using the platform.
Practices now have 7 days to review; please contact melissa.gowans@nhs.net or nelondonicb.phm.nel@nhs.net with any comments, questions or for further information.
The IG agreements are now available on the Data Controller Console for signing, and practices will receive a notification to inform them of this directly from data.controller.console@notifications.service.gov.uk. To ensure your practice can benefit from this data analytics tools, which will include practice level re-ID please do not delay in signing up on DCC.
Further comms will follow over the next few weeks with details on training and how to access the Platform from the PHM team
Kind regards,
