Bearing in Mind that we can have read codes created for September the first.
At the moment on the National Read code register there are no official codes re. ethnicity or language. The ONS Ethnicity Categories will apparently be released in September, but I will confirm this.
Any read codes on Medical Systems re. Ethnicity at the moment are ad hoc locally produced things.
To qualify the ONS categories, I propose to request codes for Country of Birth, Country of Father's and Mother's Birth.
How can we cover language? as I feel that the SDI language data can be quite confusing for patients and Staff.
Any thoughts would be appreciated
TIA
