CUREd+ Linked Civil Registrations of Deaths (CRD)

Dataset

Documentation

Description:
This dataset contains death registration records for patients in CUREd+. It includes the date of death, registration date, and a small number of additional non-identifying attributes derived from official civil registration records supplied by NHS England. The dataset is held separately from other CUREd+ patient data and is used solely to derive non-disclosive variables such as “death within X days of contact” and “died in same spell.” These derived variables are available in research extracts; the raw death register data is not shared with researchers.
