Organisation Data Service : Independent Sector Healthcare Providers and Sites

Data Description

The independent sector healthcare providers (ISHPs) will include private sector healthcare companies which provide health and/or social care related services and interact with the NHS. Organisations who support the provision of healthcare are also included, such as system suppliers. This dataset is not an exhaustive list of providers, ODS codes are issued on a needs basis (codes required to facilitate system access/engagement etc).

How Data is Maintained

Information on ISHPs are relayed to ODS via the organisations in question. This can be is facilitated by an established ODS contact (OC1) based within the organisation, if they have been established. Exceptions can occur such as where a contact is no longer working at an organisation, or changes have been agreed with an NHS England national programme (i.e. COVID vaccination programme).

Ad Hoc Some registered OC1 contacts within ISHP orgs, codes are created and maintained on a needs basis (orgs submit requests via the helpdesk).

Codes created and maintained on a needs basis.

Coverage and completeness acceptable for this organisation type - we only need to code as many orgs and sites as require codes to interact with the NHS.

Less likely that ISHPs will inform ODS when codes are no longer needed.

Now populated with a non primary role ID (RO15 or RO29) where there is a role (PrimaryRole = 0) that is active or has a legal end date as equal to the organisation’s end date.

The legacy report had a bug in that it listed records without a non primary role with a sub type of 'E' - this has been corrected in the DSE predfined report.
