2. Quick Overview 2 Releases a year for the foreseeable future
New Product Development process
Rolling 5 Year Plan
Projects – Interfacing, eTertiary, Redesigns
Design Groups
National Mandatory Audits
Audits are in our Service Level Agreement
R1 = audits, R2 = user led changes
Interoperability: saving time/duplication/re-keying
New Product Dev process – big ideas focussed on areas of the system e.g. Patient Event Diary, Acute Oncology module, redesign of individual Tumour Sites – CWT and COSD remain as core items, with site specific fields catered for.
5-10 year rolling plan will incorporate these projects and Product Development ideas
Design Groups – we want to involve users of SCR in the requirements gathering activities to ensure we develop SCR in a way that will really benefit the wider user community – we’d like commitment from anyone contributing Product Development ideas to join a Working Group and also do some User Acceptance Testing to make sure the design works in the most common ‘real life’ situations.

3. Projects 2016-17 Acute Oncology Referral Interfacing (data transfer)
eTertiary – Investigations and Treatments
Event Diary
File Attachments
Palliative Care Redesign
Batch Processing Audits
SNOMed CT
Acute Oncology Referral – will capture some of the AO Minimum Dataset
eTertiary – planning on sending all of the info captured in the Investigation and Treatment tables for each Tumour Site
Event Diary – using the Root Cause Analysis Proforma as a basis, but making it available from the start of a Referral being added and making it a lot more graphical
File Attachments – ability to upload documents to a Cancer Referral e.g. the Macmillan Care Plan, scanned copy of the UKONS Triage log sheet, Image investigation notes,
Redesigns – Paeds is scheduled for R – but MDT and CNS are not allocated yet – so R – that gives us a year to gather reqs.
Batch processing – will automate the Check Report and the creation of the Audit files
SNOMed CT – introduce Lung procedure descriptions first and then a site at a time

4. CWT Dataset Changes To be implemented by 1st April 2016:
