Cohort Number

Cohorts¶

Cohorts are defined between 1st December year and 30th November in the subsequent year. Note, the final submission date is the second Tuesday in January after the closing date 1 YEAR ON. So if the cohort closes on 30 Nov 22, the submission date is the second Tuesday after 30/11/23, which is 9 Jan 24

Cohorts are defined as follows:

currently recruiting cohort: this is the cohort that is currently recruiting patients
currently submitting cohort: this is the cohort that is no longer recruiting patients but is still collecting data to complete a full year of care
grace cohort: this cohort is also no longer recruiting patients but is still collecting data to complete a full year of care. This cohort is the one before the submitting cohort.

Time zone is not explicity supplied. Since this is a UK audit, time zone is assumed always to be UK.
