Beyond the dashboard: The role of data, benchmarking and AI in delivery of the NHS 10-Year Health Plan

Acute trusts are facing growing pressure to improve productivity, reduce unwarranted variation and deliver better outcomes while working within increasingly constrained resources. At the heart of the NHS 10 Year Health Plan is a clear ambition to make better use of data and technology - not as an end in itself, but as a means of delivering more proactive, efficient and evidence-based care.

As healthcare becomes increasingly data-rich, trusts have an unprecedented opportunity to move beyond reporting performance to actively identifying opportunities for improvement. By combining benchmarking, peer comparison, shared learning and AI-enabled analytics, organisations can gain a deeper understanding of variation, uncover insights that traditional reporting may miss, and target improvement efforts where they will have the greatest impact.

Join the NHS Benchmarking Network for a thought-provoking webinar exploring the evolving role of data in healthcare improvement. Through real-world case studies, we'll examine how trusts are using benchmarking to drive service transformation and how emerging AI-enabled approaches are helping organisations unlock new opportunities to improve clinical pathways, operational performance and patient outcomes.

The session will showcase the NHS Benchmarking Network's new AI-enabled CTPA pathway audit opportunity - an example of how artificial intelligence can complement benchmarking by analysing clinical pathway data in greater depth to identify hidden variation, uncover opportunities for improvement and provide actionable insights to support better patient care.

Whether you're leading transformation, performance, operations, digital or clinical services, this webinar will explore how data, benchmarking, AI audits and shared learning can work together to support delivery of the NHS 10 Year Health Plan - and why these capabilities will be increasingly central to the future of healthcare improvement.
