Description:
The Reporting Minimum Data Specification (RMDS) exists to ensure a consistent baseline collection of location level reporting information by CQC registered adult social care providers. To enable interoperability and information sharing securely ensure data collected helps the wider adult social care sector understand care quality and support the delivery of quality care.
This high level draft has been created for the purpose of initial socialisation with the adult social care sector to indicate the reporting metrics being considered for the RMDS.
The team will be looking for constructive feedback to improve the RMDS from the health and social care community. Plans for consultation will be publicised in due course later in 2024.
