Documentation
Description:
The Secondary Uses Service (SUS) is the single, comprehensive repository for healthcare data in England which enables a range of reporting and analyses to support the NHS in the delivery of healthcare services.
When a patient or service user is treated or cared for, information is collected which supports their treatment. This information is also useful to commissioners and providers of NHS-funded care for "secondary" purposes - purposes other than direct or "primary" clinical care - such as:
- healthcare planning
- commissioning of services
- National Tariff reimbursement
- development of national policy
