My Rt. hon. Friend the Secretary of State has not made any assessment of the liabilities faced by the National Health Service from unprocessed care home claims.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
However, on 15 March 2012, the Department announced deadlines for any new cases to the system which require assessment for NHS Continuing Healthcare (NHS CHC) funding, for previously unassessed periods of care, where there is evidence that the individual may have been eligible for NHS CHC. As a result of this, approximately 59,000 enquiries were received by the NHS. NHS England has made an assessment of the liability of these cases.<\/p>

A finished consultant episode (FCE) is a continuous period of admitted patient care under one consultant within one healthcare provider. FCEs are counted against the year in which they end. Figures do not represent the number of different patients, as a person may have more than one episode of care within the same stay in hospital or in different stays in the same year.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> 2. HES figures are available from 1989-90 onwards. Changes to the figures over time need to be interpreted in the context of improvements in data quality and coverage (particularly in earlier years), improvements in coverage of independent sector activity (particularly from 2006-07) and changes in NHS practice. For example, apparent reductions in activity may be due to a number of procedures which may now be undertaken in outpatient settings and so no longer include in admitted patient HES data. Conversely, apparent increases in activity may be due to improved recording of diagnosis or procedure information. HES figures includes activity ending in the year in question and run from April to March, e.g. 2012-13 includes activity ending between 1 April 2012 and 31 March 2013.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> 3. The data for 2014-15 is provisional and may be incomplete or contain errors for which no adjustments have yet been made. Counts produced from provisional data are likely to be lower than those generated for the same period in the final dataset. This shortfall will be most pronounced in the final month of the latest period, ie November from the (month 9) April to November extract. It is also probable that clinical data are not complete, which may in particular affect the last two months of any given period. There may also be errors due to coding inconsistencies that have not yet been investigated and corrected.<\/p> <\/p> <\/strong><\/p> <\/p> <\/strong><\/p> <\/p>"}
