Targeted Lung Health Check Programme: External Quality Assurance of Radiologists

The TLHC programme are looking to procure an external QA platform for radiologists.<br/>The external quality assurance of radiologists who report on the TLHC programme forms part of the quality assurance standards published for the programme (the TLHC programme has been signed off and is operational).<br/>Once developed, all radiologists who report on the TLHC programme will have to undertake an annual external quality assurance (EQA) test to read low dose CT scans.<br/>This will involve radiologists reviewing a set number of CT scans with the results used to benchmark reporting of radiologists with peers.<br/>This process will establish a feedback loop, to measure the ongoing quality of radiologists reporting practices.
