Footnotes: |
1. SpecialtyCare is needed when analysing HES data by specialty, or by groups of specialties (such as Acute). Trusts have different ways of managing specialties and attributing codes so it is better to analyse by specific diagnoses, operations or other recorded information. See below for mental health specialities.
|
2. Mental Health Specialties:
710 Adult Mental Illness
711 Child & Adolescent Psychiatry
712 Forensic Psychiatry
713 Psychotherapy
715 Old Age Psychiatry
|
3. Discharge destination groups include the following destination on discharge values:
19: Usual residence:
29: Temporary residence
65-69: LA care
84-89: Non NHS institution
49-54: Other NHS provider
Other: All other destination on discharge values including null
