"Our aim for this work is to improve understanding of how people with mental ill health use hospital services differently from those without. The differences observed should help those planning services so that resources are adequately assigned and influence future policies to continue striving towards parity of esteem. The analyses shown here may also provide a new way of understanding the quality of care for those with mental ill health and provide a way to track whether things get better or worse over time."
