Health Statistics


OHESI is the one-stoip source for health statistics and data on the UK.OHE Health Statistics and information (OHESI) is the one-stop source for health statistics and data on population and health trends in the UK, and on the changing finances and structure of the NHS. Data are collected and consolidated from a range of public and private sources, including some international data for comparisons. 

This new website replaces the i-Compendium website. All data now are available on this website, free of charge.

The health statistics and other data included fall into four categories.

  • Population, mortality, morbidity and lifestyle
  • UK health care expenditure and cost of the NHS
  • Hospital services
  • Family health services

The OHE Guide to UK Health and Health Care Statistics, now available, includes much of the same data as well as background information, key sources, issues and selected methods.

OHESI also provides consultancy services focused on health statistics and information, providing in-depth analyses that include additional data as required. We also publish papers and reports on specific topics such as population aging and trends in the NHS over time.
