As of 31 January 2023 PHS has been publishing A&E data in a new format and includes monthly demographic data and data on patterns of attendance, previously published annually. Additional information on Source of Referral/Discharge Destination, and Multiple attendances will be added to the new web pages early May. The new format of publishing data will initially run in parallel with ongoing weekly/monthly publications. The parallel running of both formats will be phased with the intention to switch to the new format in May this year. Should you have any feedback or enquiries relating to this new format of publication, please contact phs. unscheduledcare@phs. scot or complete the feedback form in the new web pages.
