• HCS represent about 5% of NHS workforce……• ….but they influence about 80% of all diagnostic decisions • The total qualified (Band 5+) HCS workforce headcount is
around 35,000 Life Sciences 15,855 (2,073) Physiological Sciences 6,723 (454) Physical Sciences & Biomed.Eng. 7,505 (559) Unclassified HCS 4,998 (16%)
• About 26% of the HCS workforce is ill-defined – mainly because of inadequate coding choices available in the NWD and hence ESR
• Only 16 of the 40+ scientific specialisms are currently able to be coded satisfactorily in ESR
• A project is underway to modify the NWD and hence the ESR to allow coding of the whole HCS workforce – and aim to include informatics in future
