Specialised health care (THL) The statistics on specialised health care are based on care notifications submitted by health care units and retrieved on the basis of the unique personal identity number. Care notifications contain data on service provider and patient's municipality of residence as well as information on admission, treatment, procedures and discharge. For psychiatric patients, the data also include additional data on psychiatric specialties, including data on drug therapies, coercive measures and psychiatric evaluations. Also, a count is taken of patients in hospital wards on the last day of the year.

Statistical reports on health services include a quality report and descriptions of the special features of the statistics.
