The data is being made available via a tool called iView which will allow users to manipulate and extract data.

The data in the .csv file and in iView data now contain Area Team. The HSCIC has also made another change, grouping the 'Cost Centres' that were included in the data into a single category. For further detail, please see the link 'Methodological Change Note' in the Related Links section below.
