| PatientsCount | text | The total number of patients. A patient is defined as an individual discharged from hospital (including as a transfer out) at least once during the financial year.

At the health board of treatment level, patients will be counted more than once if they have received treatment in more than one health board and/or belong in multiple diagnosis groupings. | |
