  6. Information at the heart of quality “Patients will be empowered with clear information on the quality of each service offered by every NHS organisation. Easy to understand service-specific, comparable information will be available online on every aspect of quality of care” Next Stage Review, 2008

  7. Democratising power of information “I believe government has been much too slow to make use of the democratising power of information. People take it for granted they will access other people’s reviews and ratings before buying something…and yet we do not have systematic access to other people’s experiences when choosing a GP practice” Gordon Brown, Prime Minister Working Together: Public Services On Your Side March 2009

  9. Making it local Searches using the first 3 or 4 character prefix of the postal code were mapped to a particular PCT if more than 90% of the full postal codes for that prefix were within the PCT. Searches where less than 90% of the full postal codes were within a particular PCT were excluded from the SHA level results (6,231 searches, 0.037%).
