Change to Supporting Information: Changed Description
A Multidisciplinary Team is a CARE PROFESSIONAL TEAM.
A Multidisciplinary Team is a group of professionals from one or more clinical disciplines who together make decisions regarding recommended treatment of individual PATIENTS. Multidisciplinary Teams may specialise in certain conditions, such as Cancer.
Multidisciplinary Teams may specialise in certain conditions, such as Cancer.
Change to Supporting Information: Changed Description
A Professional Staff Group Contact is a CARE CONTACT.
A Professional Staff Group Contact is a single occasion involving contact between a PATIENT or his/her Patient Proxy and one or more members of a professional staff group discipline from a Professional Staff Group Department, including paid support staff working for a professional staff group discipline.
A Professional Staff Group Contact may follow from an Out-Patient Appointment Non-Consultant, in this event the time seen should be recorded.
A Patient Proxy contact is a single occasion involving contact between the Patient Proxy, and one or more members of a professional staff group discipline or relevant staff group for community service. Contacts with Patient Proxies count as face-to-face contacts only if the contact is in lieu of the contact with the PATIENT, and the Patient Proxy is able more effectively than the client to ensure that specific professional advice devised for the client is followed.For Professional Staff Group Services, face to face contacts comprise both:
- Attendances lasting from the arrival to the departure of the PATIENT
- Visits lasting from the arrival to the departure of professional staff group staff
One or more members of the professional staff group discipline may be in contact with one or more PATIENTS at the same time and PATIENTS may be seen in association with staff from other disciplines. Contacts should be recorded as follows:
- If one or more staff of the same discipline are in contact with one PATIENT at the same time, this should be recorded as one face to face contact
- If staff see a PATIENT with staff of other disciplines, this should be recorded as one face to face contact for each discipline involved
For physiotherapy, it may not be practical to collect data about all face-to-face contacts; however as a minimum, initial contacts and first contacts in financial year should be recorded.
For occupational therapy, the contact duration should be recorded in half-hour units.
If the PATIENT is currently subject to a Mental Health Care Spell and the member of the professional staff group discipline in contact is also their allocated care programme approach care coordinator then a Face To Face Contact CPA Care Coordinator should also be recorded.
Note: When face-to-face contacts are used for attributing professional staff group costs to MAIN SPECIALTIES, it will be necessary to distinguish between those contacts by PATIENTS using a Hospital Bed, attenders at Consultant Clinics and attenders at Day Care Facilities.

- Codes for Executive Agency, Executive Agency Programme, Executive Agency Site and Executive Agency Programme Department do not easily fit into the coding frames as shown above and are therefore not included. This is due to their unusual structure in that there are more hierarchical 'tiers' than with other organisations.
Executive Agency and Executive Agency Programme are both considered Organisation level entities, although each Programme does have a relationship to an Executive Agency. Executive Agency codes are three characters long. Executive Agency Programme codes are six, and their first three characters are the same as the Executive Agency they are associated to.
Department codes of eight characters long can then be allocated underneath a Programme code (sharing the first six characters). Executive Agency Site codes of five characters long can be allocated under an Executive Agency code (and share the first three characters).
- A-9 indicates that characters A-Z and 0-9 are valid: except B, I, O, S, U and Z (to avoid ambiguity). This applies to all ORGANISATION CODES in the Coding Format Table above except Independent Sector Healthcare Providers (ISHP).
