“08 Trace postponed (baby under six weeks old)” can be considered for migration within the 5% of “Active” patients without a verified NHS Number. NHS Numbers added to maternity and child health systems will be available electronically directly from the Central Issuing Service, and considered as “02 Number present but not traced”. The advised NHS Strategic Tracing Service Status Code used will continue to be “08 Trace postponed (baby under six weeks old)”. This will continue the current practice of encouraging a trace to obtain the confirmed civil registration data.
