Documentation
These Notices were used to support the discharge of hospital patients that are considered to have social care needs. The information standard defined the minimum set of data items that were used for these Notices. The Notices were used in accordance with the guidelines defined under the Care Act 2014.
Following engagement with NHS England, Local Authorities, the Professional Record Standards Body (PRSB), suppliers and users, the NHS Digital developers of SCCI2075 agreed that no further development of the standard would occur, and that it would no longer be supported, as the product does not support current national government or NHS discharge policy.
The information standard is now being formally retired, with immediate effect. The Assessment, Discharge and Withdrawal specification FHIR message will continue to remain available to support existing providers who have implemented the messaging service, but users should note that there will be no further development of the service following retirement of the standard.
