All activity relating to Children and Young People who receive assessments and treatment from Mental Health Services is within the scope of the CYP Mental Health Services Data Set, where the patient has, or are thought to have:
- a mental health condition and/or
- a need for support with their mental wellbeing and/or
- a learning disability and/or
- Autism or any other neurodevelopmental condition
- The scope of the Mental Health Services Data Set requires patient record level data submission from services as follows:
For each patient attending a service located in England:
If the care is wholly funded by the NHS: the data submission for that patient is mandatory
If the care is partially funded by the NHS: the data submission for that patient is mandatory
If the care is wholly funded by any means that is not NHS: the data submission for that patient is optional.
For each patient attending a service located outside England, but commissioned by an English Integrated Care Board or NHS England specialised commissioner, the data submission is optional.
We currently have the data from Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust from financial year 2017 onwards.
