Description

The ECMS is a required and crucial component of a Drug and Alcohol Treatment System. In CIOS we currently commission services from 2 Treatment Providers and approximately 70 detached key workers enter data on laptops. As well as being secure and complying with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998 and the Caldecott Report, the system provides a robust and compliant case management and reporting system which enables safe and effective management of treatment as well as reporting to the PHE NDTMS (National drug treatment monitoring system), the data from which forms the basis of national performance, outcomes reporting, benchmarking and value for money calculations. The system includes all assessment and case management tools, all patient records and electronic prescription generation. Therefore, this market is regulated in as much as any system must be supplied by an accredited NDTMS-compliant Supplier. National Drug Treatment Minimum Dataset System (NDTMS)-compliance for all datasets and ability to demonstrate compliance with future PHE/NDTMS requirements is essential. The system must comply with all NDTMS business rules and definitions and be responsive in accommodating Drug Intervention (criminal justice) core data sets, including real time NDTMS/Drug Intervention Monitoring Information Service (DIMIS) monthly uploads.
