Commissioning Data Sets

The Commissioning Data Sets ( CDS) are maintained and developed by   NHS England, in accordance with the needs of the NHS and the   Department of Health and Social Care. 

Commissioning Data Sets form the basis of data on   ACTIVITY carried out by   ORGANISATIONS reported centrally for monitoring and payment purposes. They support the current   Healthcare Resource Group ( HRG) version for calculation of payment to trusts and monitoring of other initiatives. 

Requests for changes to the   Commissioning Data Sets should be submitted via email to   enquiries@nhsdigital.nhs.uk, stating "Commissioning Data Sets" in the subject line.
