Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Dear The Fullarton Medical Practice, Ayr,
Could you please let me know the following details under the Freedom of Information Act.
1) How many patients in total are currently registered at the practice?
2) How many of those have a diagnosis ICD10 - L73.2 - Hidradenitis Suppurativa? if ICD10 codes not in use please give response using relevant codes
Yours faithfully,
M Potter
I am sure I have already provided this information fairly recently but will re-run search. I am just back from my holidays so will take me a day or two to attend to emails etc.
Dear Gibson, Joanne,
Yes I did send a postal request 2 years ago. I would not need updated figures so soon but I'm trying to collate the figures online so others such as the Scottish Alliance for Hidradenitis Suppurativa (http://www.sa4hs.co.uk/) can use them to help improve and target their services and awareness campaigns. I really appreciate you are very busy and am grateful for the time spent on this. I hope you had a lovely holiday and will be happy to wait until you have the time to re-run the search.
Yours sincerely,
M Potter
No problems - could have been me having one of my senior moments glad it wasn't.
Afternoon
I just re-ran my original search. Took seconds and was good to get something off my desk.
Here are our updated figures on 22nd May.
List size 8027
Patients with READ code M25y1-Hidrademitis Suppurativa = 14 (unchanged since 2016)
Regards.
Joanne
