HES figures are available from 2007-08 onwards.

The data 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, i.e. 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> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>4. Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) are compiled from data sent by more than 300 NHS trusts and primary care trusts (PCTs) in England and from some independent sector organisations for activity commissioned by the English NHS. Health and Social Care Information Centre liaises closely with these organisations to encourage submission of complete and valid data and seeks to minimise inaccuracies. While this brings about improvement over time, some shortcomings remain.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>

answer text <p>The Department knows that some parts of the National Health Service are under pressure at the moment. Health Visitors and other health professionals have the potential to play a strong role in reducing the burden on emergency departments. We welcome proposals on innovative ways to achieve this.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>NHS England has advised that while health visiting services are currently provided in many community locations including children’s centres, community clinics and local general practitioner surgeries, NHS England is carrying out work to look at how health visitors, in response to local need, can support other frontline services and provide more support and advice to parents on caring for their children.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>For example, London and Midland and East Regions are looking at opportunities which will simultaneously enhance the health visiting service provision and support a reduction in accident and emergency attendance and waiting times over the winter period.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In both regions the services offered will fall within the professional scope of Health Visitors and are designed to support families receive the most appropriate care.

A range of other steps will relieve demand on accident and emergency departments by improving access to services outside of hospitals and improving the flow of patients through and out of hospitals. These include extending opening hours for general practice, a £3.8 billion Better Care fund for the National Health Service and local authorities to invest in joined up health and social services from April 2015, the NHS 111 service signposting people to primary and community settings where appropriate, the ambulance service resolving more calls without taking people to accident and emergency departments, and increasing accident and emergency workforce capacity. In the longer term, a review of urgent and emergency care services is looking at the way the NHS responds to and receives emergency patients to hospital, to ensure a sustainable system for the future.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>National Health Service accident and emergency (A&amp;E) departments are measured against a standard that at least 95% of patients should be admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours of arrival. The standard applies to all types of (A&amp;E) departments, including major (A&amp;E) departments, minor injury units, and walk-in centres.</p><p> </p><p>This standard was met in all four quarters and for the whole of 2013-14, with performance at 95.7% for the year. It has been met for the first quarter (April to June) of 2014-15, with performance at 95.1%.</p><p> </p><p>There were 21.8 million attendances at (A&amp;E) departments in 2013-14 compared to 20.5 million in 2009-10, and in the face of rising demand not all patients are receiving care within the standard. NHS England, the NHS Trust Development Authority and Monitor are working with the most challenged providers and commissioners. £400 million has been made available this year to ensure local urgent and emergency care services are sustainable and prepared for winter.</p><p> </p>
