The Scottish Atlas of Healthcare Variation aims to highlight geographical variation that exists in the provision of health services and associated health outcomes.
The tool is designed to highlight variation and no judgement on the performance or inferences on quality of care of one geographical area against another should be concluded.
Revised 16 October 2019
The length of stay figures have been updated as the full length of stay was not included for some patients in the original publication data. The antidepressant measure has been amended to present the rate 'per 1,000 population' to ensure consistency with the other prescribing maps; the underlying data has not changed.
