Description

The National Diabetes Inpatient Audit (NaDIA) is commissioned by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) and delivered by the Health and Social Care Information Centre, working with Diabetes UK. The National Diabetes Inpatient Audit is a snapshot audit of diabetes inpatient care in England and Wales. The audit is set out to answer the following questions: Did diabetes management minimise the risk of avoidable complications? Did harm result from the inpatient stay? Was patient experience of the inpatient stay favourable? Has the quality of care and patient feedback changed since NaDIA 2010? This publication was produced in two parts: the comparative hospital-level analysis was published 14 March 2013 and the National Report was published 27 June 2013.
