definition
This field contains a code that defines the Strategic Health Authority (SHA) area where the treatment took place. It is derived from the hospital provider code in the field procode. Note: (1) for NHS trusts, care provided at subsidiary sites will be attributed to the main trust location.
SHAs were abolished in 2013. This field has continued to be derived after this date as a 'frozen' geography.
