incorrect postcode so that these may be fixed using the ID screen.
Directions

showing the Patient Count by CCG of Residence option and enter the
relevant option number.
2. In the Enter CCG code OR Email or 'Q'uit field, enter either:
• an email address;
• a single, specific CCG code; or
• Q to quit the utility.
3. Press Enter.
Running the Utility Using an Email Address
If you enter an email address, the system will display Downloading... while the utility

Patient Count by CCG of Residence, Using an Email Address
Once the utility has finished compiling the information – which may take time to
complete – it will email the results to the address you specified.
This email will come from the address cipher.CCGPATRES@hscic.gov.uk and will
contain an attachment with a filename similar to:
• cipherCCGRESccyymmdd_hhmm.txt
where cipher is your system cipher, and ccyymmdd_hhmm is a date and time stamp.
The file will contain counts of patients by CCG of residence (records are comma-
delimited). An example of a file might be:
CCG,CCG Name,Patient Capitation
03C,NHS LEEDS WEST CCG,2
07T,NHS CITY AND HACKNEY CCG,3
13T,NHS NEWCASTLE GATESHEAD CCG,2
99P,NHS NORTHERN, EASTERN AND WESTERN DEVON CCG,567467
