Submitters are expected to keep data held in this system up to date and reflect changes as and when they occur. NHS Digital take a 'cut' of the data at the end of every month and report on the position at the end of the month with additional data on within month admissions and discharges.

Data is released on a monthly and quarterly basis. The monthly data is at England level and the quarterly data is at England plus sub England level; regional, Local Office level and where data allows, Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) and Specialist Commissioning Hubs (HUBs).
