National Data Sets refer to sets of data that are published publically online via NHS England or other sources. Ardens collects this data once it has been published and imports it into various Ardens Manager dashboards for organisations to track and monitor in one central place.

FAQs

Q: If I update our appointment slots types now will our previous months extracts be updated too?


A: Not that we are aware of, GPAD extracts their data every month and so once the data has been extracted, we do not believe the data is extracted again.
