Dear Ms Davis,
Re: Information Request – Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 2000
I can confirm that the Health and Social Care Information Centre (HSCIC) has considered your query
dated the 17th July 2013.
Please could you provide me with a complete list of NHS hospitals in the UK, with, for each hospital,
the body which is responsible for that hospital given.
Thank you for your request. Please find enclosed an Excel spread sheet detailing all Hospitals
registered with NHS Choices and an indication of the responsible body (such as the NHS Trust for
example) for each one.
Please note that some of the data held within the NHS Choices Service Finder is user generated. In
this case the Hospitals themselves keep some of their data updated directly. Accordingly, whilst we
are confident that levels of accuracy will be high, we cannot guarantee 100% accuracy in all cases.
Please also note that NHS Choices covers only England and not the whole of the UK. For Hospital
listings in Scotland, Wales, NI and the IoM please refer to national authorities in those countries
(details below):

In line with the Information Commissioner’s directive on the disclosure of information under the
Freedom of Information Act 2000 your request will form part of our disclosure log. Therefore, a
version of our response which will protect your anonymity will be posted on the HSCIC website.
I hope you understand the reasons why we are unable to supply the information requested. However,
if you are not satisfied, you may request a review from a suitably qualified member of staff not
involved in the initial query, via the
xxxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx.xx e mail address or by post at the above
postal address.
Yours sincerely,
James Smith
Higher Information Governance Officer
