NHS Continuing Health Care (CHC) Patient Level Data Set
The NHS Continuing Healthcare (NHS CHC) dataset collects detailed, standardised information about individuals over 18 in England who receive NHS-funded ongoing care or nursing care. It repurposes operational data for analysis rather than direct patient care, ensuring consistency and comparability across the UK. This dataset helps determine if individuals' needs are being met and if their eligibility for NHS Continuing Healthcare should be reassessed.
