1st Retinal Screen provides a complete managed service. The scope of the service is very comprehensive and we undertake all aspects of the delivery required to meet the NSC standards and the implementation deadlines of the Diabetes NSF.

Extensive Information Requirements
The information requirements of the Retinal Screening Programme are significant and data needs to flow from many organisations, in order to deliver a safe and efficient service. The data set required to deliver and monitor the delivery of the programme has been constructed and the coding and classification issues associated with data sharing across primary, secondary and social services have been documented and implemented by our CDRIntell solutions.

Budgetary Requirements
The budgetary requirements of our full-managed service have been carefully reviewed and there are many cost elements that have not been included within the various costing models available from the NSC. It is therefore likely that locally provided retinal screening services may run into difficulty where the additional costs have not been taken into account. Budgetary certainty is a key feature of our service.
