An MSI Landscape report is a new concept - a short format report laid out as a Marketing Presentation. In hardcopy form, the report presents a pair of pages that discuss each report aspect or question shown in the Table of Contents. Thus the question Who are the Leading Hotel Groups in the UK? is supported by a graphic (in this case a pie chart showing market share of the leading chains) and by a table (in this case, the number of bedrooms and the number of hotels of 13 named groups, plus an entry covering the rest of the industry). The facing page states those Facts that you, as the person undertaking the presentation, would be expected to know - in this instance, five paragraphs covering the recent activities of the market leaders and pertinent bullet points to enable you to create a hard-hitting presentation.

The MSI Landscape range has proved to be extremely popular, both in the hardcopy format and in the additional PowerPoint electronic version - packaged ready for you to adapt to your needs or use immediately as a framework for presenting further analysis. MSI Landscapes are also purchased as an entry level report into a particular sector by marketing professionals, financial analysts, market researchers and business information professionals.

DEFINITIONS

This report examines the health service in the Republic of Ireland, providing coverage of hospital services and general practitioners.

Day case patients are those admitted electively during the course of a day with the intention of receiving care who do not require the use of a hospital bed overnight and who return home as scheduled.

Inpatients refer to ordinary admissions, day cases and regular day or night admissions.

Outpatients are patients who attend a clinic to see a consultant.

Throughput refers to the average number of ordinary admissions treated in each available bed overnight each year.

Whole time equivalent (WTE) figures are based on hours contracted for and do not reflect the hours worked. WTE is calculated by dividing the number of contracted hours by the normal hours for the group of staff.

All values are quoted at current prices unless otherwise specified.

MSI has a policy of rounding numbers from five up to the next significant figure. Consequently financial data may differ from source documents
