CDS COPY RECIPIENT IDENTITY

CDS COPY RECIPIENT IDENTITY  is the same as attribute ORGANISATION CODE.

CDS COPY RECIPIENT IDENTITY is the NHS ORGANISATION CODE (or valid Organisation Data Service Default Code) for an ORGANISATION  indicated as a CDS COPY RECIPIENT IDENTITY of the Commissioning data.

Usage: A Recipient may be an agency or SERVICE provider that carries out the receiving (and perhaps other) processes on behalf of the NHS ORGANISATION  that ultimately uses the data. There may be multiple recipients for Commissioning data.

Organisation Data Service Default Codes for CDS COPY RECIPIENT IDENTITIES  are detailed in the Commissioning Data Set Addressing Grid.

Where NHS England is the responsible commissioner for a specialised SERVICE, based on the NHS England Commissioner Assignment Method (CAM), one of the Specialised Commissioning Hub   ORGANISATION CODES should be used depending on which Health Care Provider delivered the SERVICE, e.g.  NHS Trust, Independent Sector Healthcare Provider.

The NHS England  website provides a mapping list of which Health Care Providers map to which  Specialised Commissioning Hub. The mapping can be found on the Organisation Data Service web pages at: Provider to commissioning hub mapping.

CDS COPY RECIPIENT IDENTITY will be replaced with ORGANISATION IDENTIFIER (CDS RECIPIENT), which is the most recent approved national information standard to describe the required definition.
