It covers all NHS and private Admitted Patient Care (day case and inpatient) ACTIVITY taking place in any:

• other NHS hospital
• non-NHS hospitals or institutions where the care delivered is NHS-funded.

under the care of a CONSULTANT, MIDWIFE or NURSE, where an appropriate MAIN SPECIALTY CODE and TREATMENT FUNCTION CODE exists.  

ACTIVITY taking place under the care of Allied Health Professionals, other Biomedical Scientists and Clinical Scientists may also be carried (where an appropriate MAIN SPECIALTY CODE and TREATMENT FUNCTION CODE exists) if required although this is not a Commissioning Data Set Mandated Data Flow.

Where the Care Activity data relates to a Referral To Treatment Period Included In Referral To Treatment Consultant-Led Waiting Times Measurement, the CDS DATA GROUP : PATIENT PATHWAY data elements must be completed where appropriate.

An Unfinished General Episode Commissioning Data Set record is required for all Unfinished General Episodes as at midnight on 31 March each year and for all unfinished short-stay informal psychiatric PATIENTS who are resident in hospital or on leave of absence (Home Leave) on 31 March and who have been in hospital for less than 12 months.
