The technical preview code list was originally drafted to support a refresh of the ISB 1572 Sensitive Data standards and for no other purpose.
The legal basis for patient identifiable data and sensitive information changed with the introduction of the Health and Social Care Act 2012. However, the legal and policy context and interpretation for sensitive and/or legally restricted data has not been fully established due to the changes in legislation since the original standard was released.
As a result, this supporting code list has remained static since April 2016. NHS Digital will update the codes once an updated policy and instruction is provided by our commissioners.
This release is provided to support the ISB 1572 Sensitive Data standard and for no other purpose.
This release includes clinical code lists for In Vitro Fertilisation and Sexually Transmitted Diseases across the following terminologies and classifications:
ISB 1572 is subject to review by the Standardisation Committee for Care Information.
The supporting codes are provided as a Technology Preview product. This means that this release is subject to change and potential deprecation. See the release documentation for more information.
This release is no longer consistent with NHS regulation since the Health and Social Care Act 2012 and is subject to review by the HSCIC. The review may indicate withdrawal of the product prior to October 2016. Further announcements can be expected following this review.
