Background, introduction and guidance 3
Background information about the survey The GP Patient Survey (GPPS) is an England-wide survey, providing practice-level data about patients experiences of their GP practices. Ipsos MORI administers the survey on behalf of NHS England. For more information about the survey please refer to the end of this slide pack or visit https://gppatient.co.uk/. This slide pack presents some of the key results for NHS Oldham. The data in this slide pack are based on the 2017 GPPS publication. In contrast to previous years when the survey was carried out across two waves, the GPPS now consists of a single wave of fieldwork carried out annually, from January 2017 to March 2017. However, the sample size has remained similar, continuing to provide practice-level data. In NHS Oldham, 14,944 questionnaires were sent out, and 4,371 were returned completed. This represents a response rate of 29%. Prior to 2015 these slide packs presented Area Team averages for each. These are no longer included following the integration of Area Teams into the four existing Regional Teams. However, s can still see how their results compare to those of other local s. The questionnaire can be found here: https://gp-patient.co.uk/surveys-and-reports. Note the numbering may change each publication due to the addition or removal of questions. 4
Introduction The GP Patient Survey measures patients experiences across a range of topics, including: - Making appointments - Waiting times - Perceptions of care at appointments - Practice opening hours - Out-of-hours services The GP Patient Survey provides data at practice level using a consistent methodology, which means it is comparable across organisations and over time. The survey has limitations: - Sample sizes at practice level are relatively small. - The survey does not include qualitative data which limits the detail provided by the results. However, given the consistency of the survey across organisations and over time, GPPS can be used as one element of evidence. It can be triangulated with other sources of feedback, such as feedback from Patient Participation Groups, local surveys and the Friends and Family Test, to develop a fuller picture of patient journeys. This slide pack is intended to assist this triangulation of data. It aims to highlight where there may be a need for further exploration. Practices and s can then discuss the findings further and triangulate them with other data in order to identify potential improvements and highlight best practice. The following slide suggests ideas for how the data can be used to improve services. - The data are provided once a year rather than in real time. 5
Guidance on how to use the data The following suggest ideas for how the data in this slide pack can be used and interpreted to improve GP services: Comparison of a s results against the national average: this allows benchmarking of the results to identify whether the is performing well, poorly, or in line with others. The may wish to focus on areas where it compares less favourably. Analysing trends in a s results over time: this provides a sense of the direction of the s performance over time. The may wish to focus on areas that have seen declines over time. Considering questions where there is a larger range in responses among practices or s: this highlights areas in which greater improvements may be possible, as some s or practices are performing significantly better than others nearby. The may wish to focus on areas with a larger range in the results. Comparison of practices results within a : this can identify practices within a that seem to be over-performing or under-performing compared with others. The may wish to work with individual practices: those that are performing particularly well may be able to highlight best practice, while those performing less well may be able to improve their performance. 6
Interpreting the results The number of participants answering (the base size) is stated for each question. The total number of responses is shown at the bottom of each chart. All comparisons are indicative only. Differences may not be statistically significant particularly when comparing practices due to low numbers of responses. For guidance on statistical reliability, or for details of where you can get more information about the survey, please refer to the end of this slide pack. Maps: - and practice-level results are also displayed on maps, with results split across 5 bands (or quintiles ) in order to have a fairly even distribution at the national level of s/practices across each band. Trends: - Latest / 2017: refers to the 2017 publication (fieldwork January to March 2017). - 2016: refers to the 2016 publication (fieldwork to September 2015 and January to March 2016). - 2015: refers to the 2015 publication (fieldwork to September 2014 and January to March 2015). - 2014: refers to the 2014 publication (fieldwork to September 2013 and January to March 2014). - June 2013: Refers to the June 2013 publication (fieldwork to September 2012 and January to March 2013). For further information on using the data please refer to the end of this slide pack. * More than 0% but less than 0.5% When fewer than 10 patients respond In cases where fewer than 10 patients have answered a question, the data have been suppressed and results will not appear within the charts. This is to prevent individuals and their responses being identifiable in the data. 100% Where results do not sum to 100%, or where individual responses (e.g. fairly good; very good) do not sum to combined responses (e.g. very/fairly good) this is due to rounding. 7

Statistical reliability 60
Statistical reliability Participants in a survey such as GPPS represent only a sample of the total population of interest this means we cannot be certain that the results of a question are exactly the same as if everybody within that population had taken part ( true values ). However, we can predict the variation between the results of a question and the true value by using the size of the sample on which results are based and the number of times a particular answer is given. The confidence with which we make this prediction is usually chosen to be 95% that is, the chances are 95 in 100 that the true value will fall within a specified range (the 95% confidence interval ). The table below gives examples of what the confidence intervals look like for an average practice and, as well as the confidence intervals at the national level. An example of confidence intervals (at national, and practice-level) based on the average number of responses to the question Overall, how would you describe your experience of your GP surgery? Average sample size on which results are based Approximate confidence intervals for percentages at or near these levels Level 1: 10% or 90% Level 2: 30% or 70% Level 3: 50% +/- +/- +/- National 808,332 0.09 0.14 0.15 4,000 1.18 1.86 2.07 Practice 100 5.05 9.41 11.3 For example, taking a where 4,000 people responded and where 30% answered Very good in response to Overall, how would you describe your experience of making an appointment, there is a 95% likelihood that the true value (which would have been obtained if the whole population had been interviewed) will fall within the range of +/-1.86 percentage points from that question s result (i.e. between 28.14% and 31.86%). When results are compared between separate groups within a sample, the difference may be real or it may occur by chance (because not everyone in the population has been interviewed). Confidence intervals will be wider when comparing groups, especially where there are small numbers e.g. practices where 100 patients or fewer responded to a question. These findings should be regarded as indicative rather than robust. 61
