Introduction
National Data Sets are collections of data published online by NHS England or other sources. Ardens gathers this data after publication and imports it into various Ardens Manager dashboards, allowing organisations to track and monitor it in one central location.
Please see the below ingested data sets, when we expect the data and the date parameters of the data:
Data Source | Expected Data Release | Date Parameters of Data |
Appointments in General Practice (GPAD) | **Last Thursday of the Month | Previous month |
Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) | *To be confirmed | 2 months previous |
Friends and Family Test (FFT) | 2nd Thursday of the month | 2 months previous |
GP Patient Survey (GPPS) | After April 2024 | Previous Financial Year |
GP2GP Transfers (GP2GP) | 15th of the month | Previous month |

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.
