PHIN’s Compliance Report is used to assess whether organisations who provide private in-patient or day-case healthcare in the UK are meeting their obligations under the CMA Private Healthcare Market Investigation Order 2014.
What the PHIN compliance report measures
The Order mandates the submission of sufficient quantity and quality of data, enabling PHIN to publish accurate and meaningful data about the sector to inform patient choice and encourage competition in the market.
This report shows providers’ progress in submitting data at individual site level. It also highlights areas where data may be incomplete, or lack the necessary detail, to meet the standards required for PHIN to be able to publish key measures. These are measured against six milestones:
- Milestone 1 (Volume): Sufficient 12 months admitted patient care (APC) data or null returns for their sites.
- Milestone 2 (Length of Stay): Sufficient 12 months APC data with procedure codes (OPER01 & DIAG01) or null returns for their sites.
- Milestone 3 (Adverse Events): Sufficient APC data and linked Adverse Event data for their sites.
- Milestone 4 (Patient Feedback): Sufficient Patient Satisfaction and Experience data for their sites or have provided a complete 36 months of null returns for the publication period.
- Milestone 5 (Patient Reported Outcome Measures): Sufficient PROMs data (where eligible) for their sites or have provided a complete 12 months of null returns for the publication period.
- Milestone 6 (Clinical coding): Sufficient data with clinical diagnosis code and clinical operation code.
