10.9.5 Serious Mental Ill Health
10.9.5.1 Diagnosed and Modelled Prevalence
The prevalence of serious mental ill health (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and other
psychosis) is given in section 10.9.3.1 on page 667 for each general practice in Hull for
2009/10. Table 336 presents the prevalence of serious mental ill health for 2009/10 for
Hull and comparator areas (see section 3.3.3 on page 44), as well as for England. The
prevalence of serious mental ill health in Hull is low in relation to the majority of the
comparators.

The number of patients with diagnosed mental ill health and the prevalence as recorded
on the GP QOF disease registers over time is illustrated in Table 337 for 2004/05 to
2009/10. The indicator for mental health changed between 2005/06 and 2006/07, and
therefore the prevalence for the first two years is not directly comparable with the
prevalence for the last four years. The mental health indicator for 2004/05 and 2005/06
was for the practice to produce a register “of people with severe long-term mental health
problems who require and have agreed regular follow-up” whereas for the 2006/07 and
onwards it was to produce a register “of people with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and
other psychoses”. The latest list size refers to the registered population as at 1 st
January 2010, but the number and prevalence on the disease register is as at 31 st
March 2010 (the same definitions used in QOF), and this means that the prevalence can
be biased if large population changes have occurred over this three month period (e.g.
Y02747, Y02786, Y02896 and Y02748 all opened between 5 th October 2009 and 11 th
January 2010). The latest list size for B81676 (Dr PN Jones) relates to 2004/05 and the
