Obesity is a serious health concern which increases the risk of many other conditions, including type 2 diabetes. At Leeds CCG, we utilised RAIDR's Primary Care dashboard to support our weight management programmes. With just a few clicks we could look at population prevalence in relation to high BMI and related long-term conditions and then drill down to patient level data showing clear NHS numbers. A great feature of the dashboard that PCNs found invaluable was the ability to create and define specific cohorts of patients who fell into these categories, which led to individuals being identified who required enhanced care plans.
