Reports
BAETS owns and manages the UK Registry of Endocrine and Thyroid Surgery (UKRETS) which is an electronic audit of endocrine operations performed in the UK. The audit is run by Dendrite Systems.
Participating in the UKRETS is considered an obligatory requirement for BAETS Full Members. It is also a requirement of the Health Quality Improvement Partnership that all thyroid operations are entered onto UKRETS as thyroid surgery has been chosen by the Chief Medical Officer to be one of 13 specialties where consultant level outcomes should be openly available for public viewing.
Access to UKRETS is granted on Full Membership of BAETS. Once membership is confirmed details regarding access to UKRETS will be forwarded electronically. Surgeons can then access the registry to enter details of all endocrine operations. The results from the registry are published openly via the Surgeon Specific Outcomes Report for Endocrine Surgery.
