Treatment
results are published as quality data, enabling users and cooperation
partners of the hospital to assess the results of the hospital’s
treatment options on the basis of solid data. From May 2014, treatment
results for a total of 28 highly specialised functions will be
accessible for patients, relatives and other relevant parties.
The
first quality data with results for 18 treatment areas were published
in December 2013. By May 2014, quality data from an additional 10
treatment areas will be accessible on the hospital’s website. Data will
be presented in an easily accessible manner. All data will be
supplemented by a brief conclusion - currently only in Danish.
Questionnaire
Publication
and dissemination of quality data is a brand new initiative. Therefore,
in connection with publication of the new data in May 2014,
Rigshospitalet will ask patients, relatives and other relevant parties
to answer the electronic questionnaire (assess Rigshospitalet’s quality
data) on the website. The responses will help Rigshospitalet increase
user-friendliness further when Rigshospitalet once again publishes new
quality data at the end of the year.
National key figures
Patients,
relatives and other relevant parties have access to other national key
figures at the national level: www.sundhedskvalitet.dk informs about
activity, length of admission, re-admission and re-operation for
selected conditions and diseases.
Information about waiting times and patient satisfaction can be found on www.venteinfo.dk.
Publication
of Rigshospitalet’s quality data emphasises that the results of the
treatment (the clinical quality) are what counts. See here (only available in Danish).
