Quality Accounts Data Dictionary 2015/16
This data dictionary is designed to support the production of Quality Accounts in 2015/16. We have included information requested
of NHS England last year and the dates when the latest data sets will be available. The next refresh of the Health and Social Care
Information Centre (HSCIC) Quality Accounts portal is March 2015. At that point the data sets contained here are all available
through the HSCIC portal.
We will keep this Quality Accounts Data Dictionary up to the 30 June 2015 and add to it if any specific queries arise. If there are
any discrepancies or amendments that need to be made please email: QualityAccounts@dh.gsi.gov.uk and we will clarify and
respond to your enquiry and update the data dictionary as necessary.
The data dictionary should be read in conjunction with the Quality Accounts FAQ available at:

Summary
HospitalLevel
Mortality
Indicator
(SHMI)
The Summary Hospital-level Mortality Indicator (SHMI)
reports on mortality at trust level across the NHS in
England. The SHMI is the ratio between the actual number
of patients who die following treatment at the trust and the
number that would be expected to die on the basis of
average England figures, given the characteristics of the
patients treated there. It covers all deaths reported of
patients who were admitted to non-specialist acute trusts in
England and either die while in hospital or within 30 days of
discharge.
SHMI is updated
quarterly and
exact publication
dates are

To help users of the data understand the SHMI, trusts have
been categorised into one of the following three bandings:
• SHMI Banding = 1 indicates that the trust’s SHMI is
‘higher than expected’
• SHMI Banding = 2 indicates that the trust’s SHMI is ‘as
expected’
• SHMI Banding = 3 indicates that the trust’s SHMI is

‘lower than expected’
Trusts are advised to use the banding descriptions i.e.
‘higher than expected’, ‘as expected’, or ‘lower than
expected’ rather than the numerical codes which correspond
to these bandings. This is because, on their own, the
numerical codes are not meaningful and cannot be readily
understood by readers.
The England average SHMI is 1.0 by definition, and this
corresponds to a SHMI banding of ‘as expected’.
For the SHMI, a comparison should not be made with the
highest and lowest trust level SHMIs because the SHMI
cannot be used to directly compare mortality outcomes
between trusts and, in particular, it is inappropriate to rank
trusts according to their SHMI.
The SHMI data are available at:
http://indicators.ic.nhs.uk/webview/
The SHMI data can be found towards the bottom of the
navigation tree on the left-hand side of the page. Downloads
for the five most recent SHMI releases are available on the
‘Recent SHMI Publications’ page. Downloads for earlier
SHMI releases are available from the 'Historic SHMI
Publications' page.
The SHMI value and SHMI banding are reported in the
columns VALUE and OD_BANDING in the files ‘SHMI data
at trust level, <reporting period> (xls)’ or ‘SHMI data at trust

To support the interpretation of the SHMI, various contextual
indicators are published alongside it.
The percentage of patient deaths with palliative care1 coded
at either diagnosis or specialty level is reported in the
COMBINED_RATE column in the file ‘Percentage of deaths

‘Percentage of deaths with palliative care coding, <reporting

The SHMI contextual indicator national average figures are
reported in the ‘Contextual information’ section of the

available from the ‘Resources’ section of the HSCIC

Where trusts include other mortality indicators e.g. HSMR or
RAMI in their Quality Account it is advised that some
explanation of the main differences between these and
SHMI is provided to assist users. Also, if trusts use sources
of SHMI data in addition to the HSCIC’s Indicator Portal, the
data source should be stated.

To find the number and percentage of incidents resulting in
severe harm or death, separately sum the numbers and
percentages from the “Severe” and “Death” columns.

In the 2014/15 NHS Outcomes Framework there are 3
indicators that look at patient safety incidents reported to the
National Reporting and Learning System (NRLS) of which
one is included in the Quality Accounts Data Dictionary –
that measuring incidents that results in severe harm or
death. In 2015/16 the 3 indicators will be amalgamated into
a single indicator. The number of incidents resulting in
severe harm or death will be available as a breakdown of
this single indicator. Please see page 69 of the 2015/16
NHS Outcomes Framework Technical Annex (link below) for
a detailed description of this new, single indicator.
