The National Bridges to Health Segmentation Dataset enables a better understanding of population health needs and trends from a person perspective (as opposed to just a provider perspective), to support forecasting and planning.
It is the first of its kind to link datasets and provide longitudinal condition registers for the population of over 60 million people registered to a GP practice in England.
This means on any given month since 2016, NHS analysts can view every individual’s anonymised health state (segment), conditions they may have (subsegments), and demographic and geographical information.
The dataset can scale, be filtered by population characteristics and be used flexibly, including being joined to further datasets for advanced analysis.
