Hospital Prescribing Dispensed in the Community

We have worked with NHS Improvement (now NHS England) to produce a dataset on prescribing in a hospital setting which has been dispensed in the community.

The data is related to items prescribed and dispensed in England. The data only includes items prescribed by NHS Hospital Trust Units which have been dispensed in the community. Cost Centre data is not included in this dataset.

The data provided is based on England Hospital Trust prescribing only and may include items prescribed in England but dispensed in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Guernsey, Jersey, Alderney and the Isle of Man.

The dataset excludes:

• Items not dispensed, disallowed and those returned to the contractor for further clarification.

• Prescriptions prescribed and dispensed in Prisons, Hospitals and Private prescriptions.

• Items prescribed but not presented for dispensing or not submitted to NHS Prescription Services by the dispenser

You can read more about dataset in the guidance document: Hospital prescribing dispensed in the community guidance (Word: 246KB)
