Jane Ennis is the Operational Clinical Coding Manager
Dorset University Hospitals
She has over 41 years’ experience in the NHS starting as an RGN with ITU CCU and Vascular experience moving into Management over 26 years ago but to keep up her clinical skills continuing to work at weekends in the Emergency Department giving this up 11 years ago.
Initially working with the GP Fund holders and then moving into Clinical Coding and Overseas management over 18 years ago.
She was instrumental in implementing an electronic process for coders taking the deadline for completion from 1 year to 2 days.
She actively encourages Clinical Engagement at every level especially in relation to validation of Clinicians own activity.
She has introduced flexi working conscious that the department has to move with the times. Clinical notes are now scanned making the department entirely electronic and all coders work remotely. After years of criticisms regarding remote working this came into its own with the Covid pandemic. Jane continues to take the Coding department forward and after the merger of Bournemouth and Poole hospitals as the Operational Coding Manager is working hard to replicate the developments established in Bournemouth into Poole to ensure that the merged Trust is able to maximise income as well as ensuring Data quality is maintained.
