Concentrating services in this way should be cost-effective but there is concern that national tariffs might fail to fully reflect the true costs associated with treating patients that require specialised care. This is because the healthcare resource groups (HRGs), used to categorise patients and on which national tariffs are based, may not perfectly differentiate between patients that do and do not receive specialised care. This analysis aims to identify whether or not a patient received specialised care and evaluate whether and by how much such patients have higher costs than those allocated to the same HRG.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Pressure grows for action on sepsis &#8211; HSJ<\/strong><br \/>\nIdentifying and treating <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hsj.co.uk\/acute-care\/pressure-grows-for-action-on-sepsis\/5074628.article?referrer=RSS\" target=\"_blank\">sepsis <\/a>could soon be given the same attention as reducing pressure ulcers or hospital acquired infections, with campaigners claiming Sir Bruce Keogh is \u201csupportive in principle\u201d of increased national focus on the condition.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sonhslks.com\/contact-us.html\" target=\"_blank\">Contact the Library &amp; Knowledge Service<\/a> to request this article or Phn. 01704 704202<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NICE Bites: atrial fibrillation<br \/>\n<\/strong>The August NICE Bites bulletin from the North West Medicines Information Service covers\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.elmmb.nhs.uk\/newsletters-minutes\/nice-bites\/?assetdetesctl486923=54127\">atrial fibrillation<\/a>.\u00a0 The aim of this publication is to provide healthcare professionals with a clear and succinct summary of key prescribing points taken from the NICE guidance on atrial fibrillation (CG180).\u00a0 This guideline covers the management of AF in adults (\u226518 years) and includes people with paroxysmal (recurrent), persistent and permanent AF and atrial flutter, but does not apply to people with congenital heart disease precipitating AF.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NICE consultations<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nice.org.uk\/guidance\/indevelopment\/GID-ATYPICALHAEMOLYTICURAEMICSYNDROMEAHUSECULIZUMAB\/consultation\">Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS) &#8211; eculizumab<\/a>.\u00a0 Closing date for comments: 25 September 2014.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nice.org.uk\/guidance\/indevelopment\/GID-CGWAVE0600\/consultation\">Bladder cancer: guideline consultation<\/a>.\u00a0 Closing date for comments: 15 October 2014.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Statistics<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hscic.gov.uk\/catalogue\/PUB14803\">HES-MHMDS Data Linkage Report, Summary Statistics<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; May 2014<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/monitor-payments-to-suppliers-april-2013-to-march-2014\">Monitor: payments to suppliers, April 2013 to present<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; July 2014<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/dh-workforce-information-2014\">DH workforce information 2014<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; July 2014<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/statistics\/statistical-work-areas\/ambulance-quality-indicators\/\">Ambulance quality indicators system indicators<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; July 2014<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/statistics\/statistical-work-areas\/ambulance-quality-indicators\/\">Ambulance quality indicators clinical outcomes<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; April 2014<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/statistics\/category\/statistics\/nhs-111-statistics\/\">NHS 111 minimum data set<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; July 2014<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/statistics\/statistical-work-areas\/vte\/\">VTE risk assessment data collection<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; quarter ending June 2014<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Troubled trust reveals huge waiting list &#8211; HSJ A huge, previously unreported waiting list of more than 90,000 patients has been revealed by one of England\u2019s most troubled trusts.
