It excludes transfers between Health Care Providers and between Hospital Sites of the same Health Care Provider which initiate a new Hospital Provider Spell where the MENTAL HEALTH ACT LEGAL STATUS CLASSIFICATION CODE is unchanged but includes such transfers where the MENTAL HEALTH ACT LEGAL STATUS CLASSIFICATION CODE does change.
It excludes admissions where the PATIENT is being treated under an active Supervised Community Treatment and/or subject of a Supervised Community Treatment Recall.
During the period 1st April 2008 and 31st March 2009 both MENTAL CATEGORY and MENTAL HEALTH ACT 2007 MENTAL CATEGORY will be in use to categorise mental disorder. But for the purposes of the KP90 collection only it has been agreed with stakeholders that the MENTAL CATEGORY of PATIENTS detained in the period up to 3rd November 2008 will be mapped to the categories of MENTAL HEALTH ACT 2007 MENTAL CATEGORY.
The mapping for use with this data element is:
MENTAL CATEGORY | MENTAL HEALTH ACT 2007 MENTAL CATEGORY | |
1 Mental illness | A Mental disorder (Learning Disability not present or not primary reason for using Act) | |
2 Mental impairment | B Mental disorder (Learning Disability primary reason for using Act) | |
3 Severe mental impairment | B Mental disorder (Learning Disability primary reason for using Act) | |
4 Psychopathic disorder | A Mental disorder (Learning Disability not present or not primary reason for using Act) | |
5 Not specified | A Mental disorder (Learning Disability not present or not primary reason for using Act) |
