Where NHS patient care is sub-commissioned to independent or overseas providers, the NHS SERVICE AGREEMENT should specify that the non-NHS provider has requested an identifying organisation code from the Organisation Codes Service.

See NHS Administrative Codes for a description of ORGANISATION CODES.
