FCE/Hospital Spell Ratio

  7.  The latest information on FCE/hospital spell ratios by region and nationally is given in the table below. Admissions within the year have been used as a proxy for spells. These figures supersede and update those provided last year and are based on an analysis of the HES data which has now been subjected to a number of cleaning procedures which are designed to correct obvious coding errors. All of the figures presented for 1996-97 should be treated as provisional. Changes are likely to be made prior to final publication (a copy of the publication Hospital Episode Statistics containing these revisions will be deposited in the House of Commons library in due course. A version on CD rom will be available first).
