520 3 _aA confluence of forces has resulted in massive changes to the collection and use of performance data in the UK health system over the past 25 years. Performance measurement offers major potential benefits for clinical professionals, managers, regulators, politicians, researchers, patients and citizens. However, uncritical reliance on performance data can lead to a number of unintended and adverse consequences.
