A package containing several validation tools useful for working with NHS or UK medical data.

NHS Numbers

This package allows you to validate if a string provided, has the potential to be a valid NHS Number - as well as generate an example NHS compliant number.

NHS numbers follow a slightly modified version of Modulus 11 algorithm. Specific information on the format for the NHS can be found here.

Current basic usage is as follows.

import { NHSNumber } from 'nhs-validation'

const nhsNumber = NHSNumber.generate();

console.log('Is valid? ', NHSNumber.validate(nhsNumber) ); // true
console.log('Is valid? ', NHSNumber.validate('671 668 9966') ); // true
console.log('Is valid? ', NHSNumber.validate('000 000 0001') ); // false
