Change from STP to ICB

In the May 2022 EPD with Snomed code release the STP Name and STP code columns have been replaced with Integrated Care Board (ICB) and ICB code columns. CCG’s (Clinical Commissioning Groups) will be renamed as SICBL’s (Sub Integrated Care Board Locations) within the PCO Name Column, for example, KIRKLEES CCG will be changing to NHS WEST YORKSHIRE ICB X2C4Y.

This is to reflect the new NHS organisational structure - details can be found at the NHS Digital’s Integrated Care Board page.
