estimates. In these circumstances, the figure from the Compendium should be used in

the GP registration file tends to produce a slightly higher life expectancy estimates and a
slightly lower directly standardised mortality rate compared to the Compendium,
because the local population estimate is slightly higher than ONS‟s estimate.
Patient level data for daycase and inpatient admissions was obtained from local Hospital

elective or emergency). For more information about Hospital Episode Statistics data,
