Hospital Activity Data: A Guide for Clinicians (published November 2007 New to website 9th January 2008)
The Royal College of Physicians Health Informatics Unit has produced a guide to hospital activity data, designed to support consultants from any specialty (medical or surgical) in the interpretation and use of routinely collected data held in their name. Analyses of consultant-level data are becoming more commonplace, and may be provided by hospital trusts or by external benchmarking companies such as Dr Foster Intelligence and CHKS. The guide contains answers to the questions clinicians most commonly ask when regarding such data, along with worked examples, a glossary and ten tips for good note keeping practice to ensure accurate clinical coding. English and Welsh versions reflect subtle differences in the way data are handled in the two countries.
