Mortality Profile: indicators to be included, December 2018

Published 28 November 2018

Public Health England (PHE) is launching the Mortality Profile on 4 December 2018. This new profile tool brings together a selection of mortality indicators from other PHE data tools, making it easier to assess outcomes across a range of causes of death.

Data for the indicators listed below will be included in this first release of the Mortality Profile. The tool contains those mortality indicators which were previously only available in PHE’s Longer Lives tool.
