Request Summary: ICD10 first diagnosis discharge codes
Request Category: Companies
Question Number 1: I am making a Freedom of Information Request for ICD10 first diagnosis discharge codes and cases per hospital in your health authority, and I hope you can help me with obtaining the following data. Any information must be totally anonymised; however I am requesting the name or the postcode of each hospital as it pertains to the data set. The first set comprises diagnostic data. There are three columns: OPCS4: Primary diagnosis ICD-10 4 digit: Number of cases The other data set deals with procedures/surgery. It has a similar structure: OPCS4: Primary procedure OPCS-4 digit: Number of cases The ICD 10 data comprises the range A000 to Q999. It would be good to obtain the data for the last five years, i.e. 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21, 2021-22, 2022-23. | |
Answer To Question 1: Please see our response in the Excel spreadsheet attached. We can only provide for 2019/20 onwards as the coding was not available at a comparable depth for 2018/19. Any values that are <=5 have been concealed to protect patient confidentiality.
