A new report from the NHS Information Centre finds that
the error rate in PbR data ranged from zero to more
than 20 per cent; 4,500 duplicate patient care records; and the recording of
valid NHS numbers by hospitals was above 98 per cent for inpatient and
outpatient services but only at 93 per
cent for accident and emergency services.
