Finished consultant episode (FCE). An FCE is defined as a period of admitted patient care under one consultant within one healthcare. 2. All operations count of mentions. These figures represent a count of all mentions of an operation in any of the 12 (4 prior to 2002-03) operation fields in the Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) data set. Therefore, if an operation is mentioned in more than one operation field during an episode, all operations are counted. 3. Main operation. The main operation is the first recorded operation in the HES data set and is usually the most resource intensive procedure performed during the episode. It is appropriate to use main operation when looking at admission details, e.g. time waited, but the figures for “all operations count of episodes” give a more complete count of episodes with an operation. 4. Secondary procedure. As well as the main operative procedure, there are up to 11 (3 prior to 2002-03) secondary operation fields in HES that show secondary or additional procedures performed on the patient during the episode of care. 5. Data quality. HES are compiled from data sent by over 300 NHS trusts and primary care trusts (PCTs) in England. The Information Centre for care and social services liaises closely with these organisations to encourage submission of complete and valid data and seeks to minimise inaccuracies and the effect of missing and invalid data via HES processes. While this brings about improvement over time, some shortcomings remain. 6. Ungrossed data. Figures have not been adjusted for shortfalls in data (i.e. the data are ungrossed).

Admission methods 11 elective—from waiting list and 12 elective—booked3. Finished in-year admissions. A finished in-year admission is the first period of inpatient care under one consultant within one health care provider, excluding admissions beginning before 1 April at the start of the data year. Please note that admissions do not represent the number of inpatients, as a person may have more than one admission within the year.4. Main operation. The main operation is the first recorded operation in the Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) data set and is usually the most resource intensive procedure performed during the episode. It is appropriate to use main operation when looking at admission details, e.g. time waited, but the figures for “all operations count of episodes” give a more complete count of episodes with an operation.5. Time waited (days). Time waited statistics from HES are not the same as the published waiting list statistics. HES provides counts and time waited for all patients admitted to hospital within a given period whereas the published waiting list statistics count those waiting for treatment on a specific date and how long they have been on the waiting list. Also, HES calculates the time waited as the difference between the admission and decision to admit dates. Unlike published waiting list statistics, this is not adjusted for self-deferrals or periods of medical/social suspension.6. Data quality. HES are compiled from data sent by over 300 NHS trusts and primary care trusts (PCTs) in England. The Information Centre for health and social care liaises closely with these organisations to encourage submission of complete and valid data and seeks to minimise inaccuracies and the effect of missing and invalid data via HES processes. While this brings about improvement over time, some shortcomings remain.7. Ungrossed data. Figures have not been adjusted for shortfalls in data (i.e. the data are ungrossed).Source:Hospital Episode Statistics (HES), The Information Centre for health and social care
