Description

Hospital Episodes Statistics (HES) is a data warehouse containing records of all patients admitted to NHS hospitals in England. It contains details of more than 16 million episodes of inpatient care (finished consultant episodes), over 80 million outpatient appointments and over 15 million A&E attendance records per year. The Kennedy report recommended that HES should be "supported as a major national resource for the monitoring of a range of healthcare outcomes". Hospital episode statistics (HES) inpatient (admitted patient care), outpatient and A&E data is now being published on a monthly basis. This data is provisional and should therefore be treated as an estimate until the final National Statistics annual publications This is the most recent publication of provisional monthly HES (Hospital Episode Statistics) data for NHS Hospitals in England and activity performed in the Independent sector in England commissioned by English NHS.
