This is the latest release in a series of monthly statistics from a new 'Assuring Transformation' collection by the Health and Social Care Information Centre; these data were previously collected and published by NHS England on a quarterly basis. Data is also released on a quarterly basis and includes sub England geographies and additional measures.
Highlights
Data collected at the end of February 2016 show that:
- 2,570 patients were in hospital at the end of the reporting period
- 207 CCGs/Hubs updated information by the end of the reporting period
- 8 CCGs/Hubs did not update any information or confirm that currently held information was correct by the end of the period
- 4 CCGs/Hubs have never submitted data as they have not had a patient in scope of this collection since the transfer of this collection to HSCIC.
During February 2016 there were:
- 2,500 patients in care from the previous month
- 70 admissions to hospital
- 110 discharges/transfers from hospital
- 5 patients admitted and discharged/transferred in the period.
Please note, the Reference Data Tables were replaced on 22-3-16. This was to correct an error identified with the historical figures. This affected data for March 2015- January 2016 in tables 2-10 and 14. The February 2016 figures are unaffected by this.
