Comments
Guide for use:
This data element should not be reported if the service user is aged 16 years or more, even if the person's parent or guardian receives 'Carer Allowance (Child)'.
This data element does not refer to the 'Carer Payment' (formerly 'Carer Pension'), even though some parents or carers of children aged less than 16 years may receive 'Carer Payment' as well as 'Carer Allowance (Child)' (formerly the 'Child Disability Allowance').
CODE 9 Not stated/inadequately described
This code should only be recorded when it has not been possible for the service user or their carer/family/advocate to provide the information (i.e., they have been asked but do not know).
