CHKS is proud to announce the launch of its British Association of Day Surgery (BADS) Module, a powerful benchmarking and analytics tool designed to help NHS Trusts and healthcare providers optimise day surgery performance, improve patient outcomes, and unlock operational efficiencies.
Aligned with the BADS best practice standards, the BADS Module empowers NHS Trusts to deliver clinical excellence while achieving measurable efficiency gains. With over 300 procedures benchmarked, this tool is a game-changer for day surgery strategy.
Many healthcare organisations face challenges such as:
Inconsistent clinical practices
Variations in performance
Limited visibility of operational metrics
Lack of peer benchmarking
Difficulty identifying improvement opportunities
These challenges make it harder to deliver best-in-class care and maximise resource utilisation. Without clear insights, how can clinicians and managers deliver the best care and promote clinical excellence using the right analytical tool?
The CHKS BADS Module is a simple, efficient, and data-driven platform that transforms raw data into actionable insights. From specialty and procedure-level down to individual patient detail, the tool enables clinicians and managers to:
Benchmark performance against BADS targets
Compare results with primary and secondary peer groups
Identify trends to drive improvement
By visualising key metrics - outpatient rates, zero-night stays, overnight admissions, and longer stays - the module highlights opportunities to:
Free up beds and theatre time
Reduce costs
Enhance patient experience
Benchmark against BADS targets and two peer groups
Drill down from specialty and procedure to patient-level detail
Flexible views: summary dashboards or detailed tables
Savings tiles showing operational bed day opportunities and inpatient cost reductions
Customisable peer groups for tailored comparisons
Interactive charts for trend analysis and performance distribution
