2-hour Urgent Community Response Performance metrics for October 2022 (provisional), and September 2022 (final)

Details

The UCR monthly key performance indicators were first published in June 2022 (for activity carried out in April 2022). These include:

  • The percentage of 2-hour UCR referrals that achieved the 2-hour standard in the reporting month

  • The number of 2-hour UCR referrals in scope of the 2-hour standard that were received in the reporting month

  • The number of all 2-hour UCR contacts that were delivered in the reporting month

These indicators are shown at provider, Integrated Care System (ICS), commissioning region and national levels, and are updated monthly. The latest month of data is taken from provisional (primary) CSDS data and previous months are taken from final (refresh) CSDS data. Provisional CSDS data is used for reasons of timeliness, and final CSDS data is used for reasons of data quality, therefore the latest month of data should be used with caution.

As the publication uses CSDS data, these statistics are classified as experimental and should be used with caution. Experimental statistics are new official statistics undergoing evaluation. More information about experimental statistics can be found on the UK Statistics Authority website. Experimental statistics are produced impartially and free from any political influence.
