Easy and accurate Mental Health Service Data Set submissions with PCMIS
Did you know it is mandatory for all providers of NHS-funded specialist mental health services to submit data to the Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS)?
The list of organisations within scope has recently expanded to include a range of smaller services such as charities and children’s mental health providers. These providers are often compact teams of clinical and admin staff without the budget to bring in data and reporting expertise, but the good news is, help is available!
In this article we’ll discuss some of the ways PCMIS Health Technologies can support your team to be MHSDS compliant and ensure an easy data submission process.

About PCMIS
The PCMIS mental health case management system and our patient facing Portal support a range of care settings, including adult and children’s psychological therapy services.
We design our digital mental health tools specifically to ensure the highest levels of data quality and data completeness. Our reputation for excellent data outputs has led to 1 in 3 NHS Talking Therapies services using our technology, as well as Children and Young People’s Mental Health services, Student Support, Employment & Mental Health services, Charities and Staff Wellbeing services.
Facilitating excellent data quality
Within our team we have two decades worth of expertise in supporting both the Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS) and the IAPT MDS (for NHS Talking Therapies).
Our data and reporting experts stay on top of changes to NHS data sets to ensure our system, and therefore our customers, stay compliant. We take away the stress and admin heavy workload related to data mapping and coding so that you can focus on delivering the best possible care for your clients.
Ready to submit MHSDS Data Reports
PCMIS has a suite of reports available at the click of a button without the need to wait for overnight data refreshes, meaning you’ll have access to the most up to date service information at your finger tips
We have built-in MHSDS reports that can be run at any time for you to check the quality of your data in advance of monthly data submissions, and our exportable MHSDS reports are built to include all the relevant data, in the correct format, to enable you to upload it straight to the NHS Strategic Data Collection Service (SDCS) in the Cloud each month.
Post-submission support
On the rare occasion that you may be notified by NHS England that there is an issue with your data submission, the PCMIS team will work with you to investigate issues and rectify them to ensure all future submissions are compliant.
