Description
Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions (ACSC) are conditions resulting in a hospital visit (to any department) where the underlying reason (health condition) could have been treated in the community rather than requiring treatment at a hospital (i.e., hospitalisation is potentially avoidable or preventable). The codelist here includes the subset - vaccine preventable conditions.
Methodology
Codes were taken from NHS Digital (see https://web.archive.org/web/20210517160816/https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/data-tools-and-services/data-services/innovative-uses-of-data/demand-on-healthcare/ambulatory-care-sensitive-conditions)
Codelists are developed by a broad community of users for individual study purposes, which may or may not meet the needs of other studies. They should not be thought of as universal definitions of a particular condition.
We don't offer any guarantees about what they do or don't identify. Users should carefully check that any codelist meets their needs, and seek clinical input where appropriate.
